Hello,
I have Netbackup Appliance 5240 3.1.1 configured and i wanted to take backup of my vCenter, and i am confused. where should i install Netbackup client software?
Please discribe the steps
Thank You
Hi hi
the problem was from the root user account, i used another administrative account to be able to successfully add vCenter credentials to Netbackup Appliance.
NetBackup Client software is part of server software.
So, already on the Appliance.
Steps are documented in NetBackup for VMware Administrator's Guide
Please read through Chapter 1 (Introduction) and Chapter 2 (Required tasks: overview).
These topics are covered in Chapter 1:
■ About NetBackup for VMware
■ Updates to this guide for NetBackup 8.1.1
■ About the virtual machine backups that include database data
■ About the NetBackup appliance as a VMware backup host
■ NetBackup for VMware components
■ Appliance as backup host: component overview
■ Media servers as backup or discovery hosts
■ Overview of the VMware backup process
■ NetBackup for VMware license requirement
■ NetBackup for VMware terminology
Thank You Marianne,
Can i use root username and password of vCenter when adding Virtual Machine Server Credentials to Netbackup ?
Thank You
