Hello,

In order to backup a NAS server, you can create user defined selections. It is also recommended to create a separate job for backing up NAS.

Check its compatibitlity first as per the link below:

Also refer to the following link:

During the backup of some Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices, the message "Remote Agent is not present" appears in the Activity Monitor.

HI I think its because we havent got remote server licence installed on the media server, because we dont get the option to view the selection to choose which directories to backup. Is this the case or am I totally wrong

Hello Mark !

You will have to create a user defined selection in backup exec to be able to select your NAS box.
