You install the sql agent on the client (i.e. where SQL is installed).

There are a few gotchas, like:
1) create a local user with full admin privs (both to the server AND all
databases to be backed up).  Run the netbackup services as this user

2) I follow these steps:
        a) install netbackup
        b) install database option
        c) patch netbackup

3) when creating odbc, use ALL UPPER CASE.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] SQL Installation


I am trying to install NBU for SQL 7.0. I have a 2000 Master server and 
a 2000 machine with SQL.
The master is configured and I have installed NBU agent on the SQL 
machine. Now where do I install the SQL database agent? On the Master or 
the client?

And once I install, do I just follow the book to configure it? Seems 
very involved.  Any gotchas?

Thanks very much.
Prasad.
