Alan;
Why don't you leave your old NWC in place on Linux with its history
data (but not keep it in production) and run a new instance of the NWC
on Solaris in production?
You would still have all your historical data that way. I suspect you
are running into the situation of little endian versus big endian. You
might try contacting Sun to see if they can recommend a solution to you.

Networker gurus,
I imagine a few of you have already walked down this path before me
(I can see
the tread marks): moving your Networker server from Linux to Solaris
(or vice
versa). We've migrated the guts of the backup environment
successfully, but we
are falling down over the NMC relocation. We'd like to be able to
preserve our
history and user configuration for reporting and administration, but
recoverpsm
chokes with this error:
recoverpsm: Restoring database lgto_gst
12/07/07 07:39:58 recoverpsm: FAILED 08004 -97 [Sybase][ODBC Driver]
[Adaptive
Server Anywhere]Database page size too big
As I'm sure everyone knows, no matter how many times or for whatever
legitimate
reasons people do this, EMC does not support shifting from one
platform to the
other, so support isn't able to give us much help with this issue.
Does anyone
have any ideas on how this could be done? We think there could be
an endian
issue causing this in the shift between filesystems and
architectures (ext3 to
ufs; x86_64 to Sparc). We thought maybe we could load Sybase up and
dump the
database on one end to files and then load the files in to the
database on the
other end, but we need a username and password to do this. Does
anyone have any
of those? I don't think it would be a site specific one. Any other
useful
suggestions would be welcome as well.
