    SQL Anywhere is database software.

    You can compare it with MsSQL in your environment - the dba's will first install SQL software, then create databases.

    Same with NBU - SQL Anywhere database software is installed when NBU is the installed. Then NBDB database is created that is used for EMM.

    This is described in the Admin Guide (see About the NetBackup relational database) and in this TN: http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO33622
