#Backup exec 16 migration to another server install
BEDB.bak is created from a database maintenance activity which creates a backup of BEDB everyday 4 am by default and the file exists in BE Install Path\Data folder. Since SQL service is running when the job runs bedb_dat.mdf and bedb_log.ldf ( BE database files ) will not be backed up from BE if they are selected from the file system level and hence the latest BEDB.bak may be used to restore the BEDB to get back the BE configuration.

If Data and Catalog folder are backed up with Backup Exec then the Backup Exec database may need to be restored from BEDB.bak which gets backed up by the file folder backup if a job to back it up was created then. Note: If it is an older BE Installation configuration being brought back and old BE server does not exist, then Data and Catalog folder can be restored from the backup setas well if they were being backed up from the BE Installation Path before older BE server decommissioned.
