How to add Linux client type option to policy

[Frank_Cavadi]

How to do I add Linux and/or other OS client types under

"Hardware and operating system" (that do not show up)

pull-down menu when doing add "New Client" for  a backup policy.

Master server is Solaris 9

Do I re-install the "server" software?  Will this overwrite everything?

Or, will I be be present with options to add specific OS clients?

Do I just add linux client to Solaris master server?

Help please.

Install LINUX client bianries from Clients CD on your master server. This should solve your problem.

Don't have CD's.  But, did download NetBackup_6.5_CLIENTS2.tar.gz and loaded

the Mac & Linux clients on Solaris master server.  These tehn appeared as options

Hardware and OS pull down when adding new client to a policy.
