Use the osbcvt command-line tool to migrate Reliaty Backup configuration and catalog data to Oracle Secure Backup. The installob scripts runs osbcvt automatically during a migration, so you would not typically need to run it manually.
osbcvt performs the following tasks:
Selects the source and destination directories.
Moves relevant information from the source to destination admin directory. Relevant information includes hosts, devices, media families, schedules, datasets, index directories, and archive and volume catalog files.
Reads the /etc/rbconfig file and converts the parameters it contains to the /etc/obconfig equivalents.
Processes server and client hosts.

Oracle Secure Backup Migration Guide to learn how to migrate from Reliaty Backup to Oracle Secure BackupNote the following aspects of osbcvt usage:
osbcvt removes most of the admin directory in your Reliaty Backup home. Thus, it is recommended that you back up your Reliaty Backup admin directory as a precaution before beginning the migration.
osbcvt is unaware of the Oracle Secure Backup logical names for new hosts and devices. Thus, after the migration is complete you must update your host configurations and edit your device attachments to ensure that they reflect the Oracle Secure Backup equivalents.
