Hi Paul,

We are running Solaris 8, Solaris 9, and MAC OS X clients with a W2K master.  
We also have a few Solaris 8 media servers too.  I've seen the Solaris and MAC 
clients being backed up by both the W2K and the Solaris media servers without 
any issues.  I installed netbackup on the Solaris system from the CD labelled 
"Veritas NetBackup DataCenter 4.5 for Solaris, Server Software and all Unix 
Clients".  I wasn't prompted for a license during installation - I suspect that 
the license is held on the master server.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Roland.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] FW: Backing up Unix client from W2K master server






Hi All,

hope you can give me some advice re: backing up a HP UX Client from our 
existing Netbackup Master Server running on a W2K platform. A while ago we were 
asked to get some costs for a Veritas Netbackup Unix Client and Media Kit for 
W2k. The questions I have are :-

1) Do you have any experience of using Unix Clients with W2K Master Servers. I 
know there is different flavours of Unix, but I am guessing the principles are 
the same.
2) We have a set of CD-ROMS for Netbackup 4.5 - is the Unix Client for W2K 
included in this set of disks or will it have to be purchased separately.
3) Although we need to purchase the license, and this is being followed 
through, do you actually need a license key to install the Unix Client 
software. With W2K clients no license keys are required, so we need to know if 
this is the same for the W2K Unix Client. If we need a license key then this 
may delay the install.

Thanks and Best Regards

Paul
