Hi

Clients aren't "connected" to media servers. Media servers get authorized to communicate to clients for backup and restore purposes. On the client's configuration (registry or /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf) it has a SERVER list. Any server in this list can backup or restore to a client. 

That is just from an authorization point of view. The storage attribute on a policy or schedule (or SLP) dicate which media server will backup a client.

So the best place to look is the policies really.
