Installing the plug-in

Installing the plug-in

The NetVault Backup Plug‑in for FileSystem is automatically installed when you install or upgrade the NetVault Backup Server or Client software.

This section includes the following topics:

On Windows-based machines, you can use the push installation method to install the plug-ins on several machines at the same time. You can perform push installations from the NetVault Backup WebUI.

Using the correct plug-in binary on Solaris

On Solaris, the startup.sh script sets the binary to use for the NetVault Backup Plug‑in for FileSystem.

NetVault Backup uses the startup.sh script to determine the mode the system is running in, and accordingly run the 32-bit or 64-bit binary for the NetVault Backup Plug‑in for FileSystem.

To run the 32-bit or 64-bit plug-in based on OS mode, use the following command to start NetVault Backup on Solaris:

startup.sh start
