Nopes, not this option. Are you running the setup on the same server or a different server ?

This KB is for BE 2014, however the steps are same for BE 2012 as well. Check Fig 16 - http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH218012

Hi,

You need to license the Enterprise Server Option which includes the Central Admin Server Option...

this will allow you to check up on media servers from a central location.

Read below for more information:

...and:

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=HOWTO74432 (Best Practices for BE 2014 but they should stand for BE 2012)

The Admin Guide will also have information on this, so check it out too.

Thanks!

Besides CASO which is a paid option, you can also install the BE remote console so that you can login to other BE consoles from a remote console

Run the setup...Choose to install Backup Exec... Choose Custom Installation and then local installation... Then you get the option for a remote administration console.

If this is required, you might want to contact Symantec directly to see if they can enable this for a period of time.

Thanks!
