BEUTILITY (BackupExec Utility)

To migrate the BackupExec databases after the server has been migrated to a new domain:

Make sure you change all the BackupExc services so that they launch using a local service account not a domain or local admin account.  DO THIS FIRST and then run the beutility.exe app.

The beutility.exe file is located in the in the same folder as the main BE application. 

Launch beutility.exe.  The option is not so easy to find.. You click on the List of servers, right click on the server name and select "update configuration to reflect new media server name", then fill in the new domain and server name and the old domain and server name.
