Hello,

To be able to backup any remote system, you need to install the Remote Agent on it. If the system is a workstation...then you need not have to have license of Remote Agent. But to backup any server system, you need to have a Remote Agent license.

To install Remote Agent, please refer to the following technote:

How to perform a local installation of the Backup Exec Remote Agent for Windows Servers or the Advanced Open File Option

I would also like to know what database files you want to backup ?

Regards
