Unable to restore file and folders of VM backup

I'm getting error even when restoring files & folder. Even when the host entery is done in etc\hosts and i'm able to ping the server i'm trying to restore. I'm able to ping that machine as i have done host entries but havn't installed Netbackup agent on any VM. Can i restore VM data on backup server itself as i don't have agent installed on VM.

  • You need a NetBackup Client installed inside the guest OS to be able to restore it.
