Hi Bill
If possible, I'd suggest taking a NetWorker training class. If not, the
various NetWorker components (called 'resources') are well covered in the
Administrator guide. The one that is discussed well is the 'server network
interface' field. This field, in the client resource, defines the name or
IP address of the NetWorker Server that you want to send the backups to. DO
NOT put any client-side information into that field. For instance, if your
NetWorker Server has two network interface cards (a 'public' Ethernet and a
'private' just-for-backups Ethernet), then put the IP address or IP name
that you assign to the 'private' interface in the 'server network interface'
field for the client.
Please let me know if this isn't clear. And, ask about any other problems
as you go along. NetWorker is a big, complex product; it took me years to
understand, FWIW.

Subject: [Networker] Broad methodology question...
I am rather new to Networker. I have worked with Veritas Netbackup
extensively and was wondering if anyone could point me to a document
comparing the jargon between the products.
I have a very diverse list of clients that I need to backup and was hoping
for some high level examples for how to layout my groups, pools, clients,
etc. I am backing up both Unix and Win32 hosts as well as instances of
Oracle, MS SQL Server, and Sybase. I also have to address issues with
restricting my backup streams to a private IP network. I have read over all
the individual docs and have a rather comfortable understanding of how each
component of the environment affects other components, but don't know
exactly where to begin.
Any hints would be appreciated,
Bill Callahan
