Merge Indexes
At one of the sites, Server A was being backed up. Customer made some changes to the DNS and claims that after this a client with the name A.domain.com got created. He continued backing up A.domain.co and delete the client resource for A.
We have the indexes folders for both of them. mminfo provides us client IDs also for both of them. Now if we need to recover older data under client A, we cannot do it since we deleted the client resource for Client A. We can recreate the Client A with its original ID but in that case two of our licenses get consumed.
Please suggest some way to resolve this scenario.

suggest to recreate client under some name X and use
directed recovery until that data is not expired. If
customer had prepared alias list before renaming
client that would not happen.
I have create one with the name dummy as he has allready used aliases.
When you say directed recovery, you mean for all data that was backed up. Actually one client has around 1 years data and the other one has only the last 3 months.
Is there a directed recovery of indexes possible?

Also will it take license once the client is defined?

If they use 7.1.X you can scan the new tapes I do this before and works fine.

May be if there is no other way, I would retain the earlier client and scan through the last three months tapes.
I wonder if I run scanner -i -c client \\.\tape0, will the jukebox be intelligent enough to automatically scan all the required tapes?

May be if you have any other suggestion. The best resolution that I can think of is to bring both clients into one & I could spot out scanning only.

I suggest you try do this first on lab with version 7.3.2.
