Re: [Veritas-bu] 6.0mp5 newbie question - advice

I believe you need to make your system (the client you are backing up) a media server.
I believe that is a seperate license from Symantec.

Subject	[Veritas-bu] 6.0mp5 newbie question - advice - for changing setup

Hi, I have search for all the documentation and cannot find an answer for this. Just got a new job and am new to netbackup and I am trying to speed up the 2 day long backup into a shorter window. Current setup: netbackup 6.0 mp5 on master server solaris 9. I am backing up 1Tb over LAN to a dell PV132T tape library with 2 LTO Ultrium. the 1Tb of data is on a windows 2003 server. Will this change work? Direct connect the windows 2003 server by SCSI to one of the LTO drives ( I have done this connection and windows can see the drive) Setup netbackup to use this SCSI connection to backup the 1Tb and thus not backup across the LAN. I cannot manage to get the netbackup software to configure this setup. Will the netbackup software do this or do I need to setup the windows server as a master server also. I want to avoid buying licences if I can.
