It's the Windows Netbackup remote admin console; this is different from
the Java console isn't it (at least the CDs seem to think it is)?

Huh, is there a non java remote admin console or is that something you
get with a UNIX Master?

        This is the thing though; with a remote admin console (non Java
version) on Windows-based machine (connecting to a Unix Master), I can't
browse either, so it doesn't look like it's an issue with using the Java
GUI.
         
        Cheers,
         
        Tim

        The browsing Tim appears to be talking about is on the backup
selections tab in a policy so the server must get a list of file systems
and files via the agent on the client, not physically mount file
systems.
         
        I think it is just a feature (or lack of) of the Java GUI. We
are mainly a Windows based shop and I can't browse any client file
systems using the Java GUI whereas I can browse both UNIX and Windows
clients with the Windows GUI.
         
        Regards
         
        Richard

                 been like that as long as I can remember.
                 
                a unix host can't natively mount a windows share.....(ie
NFS vs CIFS) so a unix master/media cannot inspect the filesystem of the
windows client to "browse".

                        Hi,
                         
                        We've found some differing behaviour in regards
to browsing backup selections using NBU6; A Windows Master appears to be
able to browse Unix\Linux files systems on clients, whereas a Unix
Master does not appear to be able to browse Windows (the path has to be
entered manually).
                        Is this as expected? Does anyone know why?
                        I'd guess it has something to do with the GUI;
on Unix (java GUI), there is no button to browse, and although a remote
admin console in Windows (connecting to Unix Master) has a browse
button, it isn't actually an active operation on the Unix Master (or
something like that).
                         
                        Cheers,
                         
                        Tim
