SSO requires each system to be connected to the drives via Fibre or SCSI. If
a system is directing traffic through a media server to a tape drive it is
considered a NetBackup Client.

                Subject:        [Veritas-bu] Question about SSO

                Hi Everybody,


                I have a question about configuring SSO.

                If I want to set up more than one media servers to use a
single set
                of drives, do I need these machines to be physically
connected to the drives 
                ?

                Or can I make it work with just one media server connected,
and the
                other media servers working through this server ?
                (Forgive me, if this sounds like a silly question.)


                Thanks
                Max
