 I believe that you have installed NBU client on UNIX box

Ohh, I don't know that, so we need to install NBU client software first on Unix machine?

The Master server , Media server all are Windows 2003 servers.

Thank you for your quick response, another question I am having is.

- Our company is using Netbackup 7.0.1, is that fine installing the above software in RHL box?

Note:  Unix/Linux Agents and Options (Database Agents/BMR/NDMP/Vault)  have been consolidated into the client and server installation.

Ok, I found this, but not sure which one is the agent in that, it says Databased Agents/BMR/NDMP/Vaults.......can I install this as NBU agent

 (REQUIRED) NB_CLT_7.0.1.tar provides updates for NetBackup 7.0 for all UNIX/Linux/Mac clients.
