About NetVault Time

NetVault Backup designates a Time Server, called NetVault Time Server, to synchronize time on the server and all client machines in the NetVault Backup Domain. Typically, the NetVault Backup Server acts as the NetVault Time Server, and the system time on this machine is the NetVault Time. However, you can designate any other NetVault Backup machine as the NetVault Time Server. NetVault Backup ignores the local time on the clients and uses NetVault Time for all time-specific operations, such as job scheduling, reporting, and tracing.

Configuring an alternate NetVault Time Server

To establish an alternate NetVault Backup machine as the NetVault Time Server:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Change Settings.
2
On the NetVault Server Settings page, complete one of the following actions:
•
To configure default settings for the NetVault Backup Server, continue to Step 3.
•
To configure default settings for a NetVault Backup Client, click Client Settings. In the NetVault Backup Clients table, select the client, and click Next.
