Hello,
advantages with a separte master server 
- you can apply patches for netbackup without any impact on your applications 
(applications are on the media servers only).
- Backup administrators may have root login on to the master not media server : 
they do not ask everyday for root login on the media server.

disadvantages with a separte master server 
- You will need one more server (the master).
- the master has kownledge of IP adresses of all netbackup clients. If your 
clients are into a DMZ, it may not be recommanded.

disadvantages with a master and media server
Your media server has an application. If you shutdown the media server (because 
of application maintenance, crash ...) you will stop all your backups because 
the master will stop.


 :? sorry for bad english. :?
