Hi,

 

Are these 2 servers part of a cluster? If so, refer to the best practices below, as well as the BE 2014 Admin Guide where it has a section on configuring backups of clusters:

http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO74445

Basically, install the BE AWS (remote agent) on each node, and then run a cluster configuration wizard to set this up on the media server.

Once done, select the virtual node (you can select anything else on the 2 physical nodes) to ensure that no matter which node is active, the resources get backed up.

Thanks!

Apart from installing AWS on both nodes of the cluster, you need to have 2 Agent for Applications and Databases licences.
