NetVault Bare Metal Recovery 12.5 - User Guide for Plug-ins

Before installing the Plug-in Live Client, install the Plug-in Server. Before installing the Plug-in Server, verify that the following requirements have been met:

•

The Server version of the NetVault Backup software must be installed on at least one machine.

•

The NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client machine — the target of the backup or restore — must have a supported Windows OS installed.


	IMPORTANT: For the Plug-in Server to function correctly, all its associated components must be the proper version; that is, version “X” of the Plug-in Server only works with its appropriate version of Plug-in Live Client. For details on supported versions, see the Quest NetVault Backup Compatibility Guide.

From the machine acting as the NetVault Backup Server, access the NetVault Configuration Wizard or Manage Clients page.


	NOTE: If the selected clients are all the same type, you can use the configuration wizard to install the plug-in on multiple clients at the same time. When you select multiple clients, verify that the plug-in binary file is compatible with the OS and platforms of the target clients. From the Manage Clients page, you can only select one client for plug-in installation.
