Shared Storage option (SSO)
NDMP for SSO is supported in NBU 6. For me, having multiple NDMP hosts, I have a specific set of devices that they share only.

Drive is down and cannot be upped !!
Sounds like a spurious lock file somewhere. Since it's only one drive why not delete it from the config, recycle services, add drive back....just a thought- GreyWanderer

netbackup change servers
You cannot bprecover your 5.1 catalogs to a fresh install on NBU6.0. Build out your new 5.1 - bprecover it - upgrade in place to NBU 6.0- GreyWanderer

From 3.x to 4.x, and from 4.x to 5.x. We did just do a fresh install of NBU on new hardware and then bprecover the previous catalog without any problem, it is not supported by Veritas to do it this way. Our reasoning for upgrading in that manner was to keep the backout quick and clean, just...- GreyWanderer
