agent dedup option not available when pushing agent

Hello,

Cannot find any similar topic here...I cannot enable the agent to use client-side-dedup.
When pushing the agent to the client, the dedup option is not available to be deployed (only the remote agent is sent to the client). I think this is the reason the job run on server-side dedup.

Backup exec: Server 2008, backup exec 2012
Client: Server 2008
 

Thanks in advance for your infos

Hi

You need to push install Backup Exec remote agent on client. If you have deduplication license installed on Media server it will also push Dedup services on Client server.

Please follow article below to enable client side deduplication.

Thanks for the reply.

The 4 points are all correctly set up. 
I have restarted BE services, even though they were not required.

Not sure it fixed the problem. I'll post if not....

Thanks!
