NOTE: A NetVault Backup Server can only support clients of the same version as itself or older. The NetVault Backup Client software version cannot be higher than the NetVault Backup Server software version.
To add a client to the NetVault Backup Server:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Manage Clients, and then click Add Client.
On Linux-based machines, you can also start the wizard from the Guided Configuration link. In the Navigation pane, click Guided Configuration, and then on the NetVault Configuration Wizard page, click Add Clients.
2
In the list of available clients, select the client that you want to add, and click Next.
The list includes machines that are automatically discovered on the network broadcast range. These are machines on which you have installed the NetVault Backup Server or Client software.
You can view the following information about the machines:
•

•
Client: Displays the NetVault Backup name assigned to the client.
