About selecting a primary server

When you perform a move, the backup images must be available on the host machine that acts as the NetBackup primary server for the destination host. If this server is contained in the server list of the destination host, you can select the current primary server by selecting File > Set NetBackup client properties.

If the server is not in the server list of the destination host you must duplicate the images onto removable media (with a unique ID). Then transport that media to the primary server that the destination host uses, and import the images to that server. After the images are imported, continue with the instructions for performing a move. A server may not appear in the server list because the server is remote or has access limitations.
