Name
cat_import — migrate catalog image metadata from flat ASCII image header files into the NetBackup database (NBDB)
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The cat_import utility migrates catalog image metadata from flat ASCII image header files into the NetBackup database (NBDB) or a staged copy of NBDB. You can use the cat_import command line to move all image metadata or a subset of metadata based on client (-client) or backup ID (-backupid).
The cat_import utility can also be used with the cat_export command in the following ways: as part of a disaster recovery scenario or to relocate image metadata information from one repository to another. More information is available on NetBackup disaster recovery.
Refer to Disaster Recovery in the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.
You must have administrator privileges to run this command.
