About processing the NetBackup database in staging

Warning:

Cohesity recommends that you process the NetBackup NetBackup database only when directed to do so by Cohesity Technical Support. For help with NetBackup domain merges and splits, contact the Cohesity Information Management Consulting Services:

http://www.veritas.com/business/services/consulting_services.jsp

More information about the commands in the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide:

https://support.cohesity.com/s/article/article-100040135

A recovery of the NetBackup image files and configuration files also restores the data and metadata for the NetBackup databases (BMRDB, NBAZDB and NBDB) to the staging directory. You can use the following NetBackup command to further process the NBDB database if required:

nbdb_restore -staging

Use nbdb_restore -staging to recover the NetBackup database from the staging directory.
