NetVault Plug-in for NDMP 13.3 - User Guide

Prerequisites

For filer-specific installation requirements, see the relevant Quest NetVault Backup Plug‑in for NDMP Application Notes.

IMPORTANT: Quest recommends that you install the Plug‑in for NDMP on the NetVault Backup Server instead of the client. This step ensures that the plug-in has access to the NetVault Backup Scheduler, which is required for use of the subjob features. If you install the plug-in on a NetVault Backup Client or SmartClient, you must manually configure all jobs.

Also, installing the plug-in on the client prevents you from clicking the Volumes node to select all volumes automatically on the NetVault Backup Selections page. You must manually select each volume that you want to back up.

Installing or upgrading the plug-in

2
In the NetVault Backup Clients table, select the client on which you want to install the plug-in, and click Manage.
3
At the lower-right corner of the Installed Software table, click the Install Plugin button ().
4
Click Choose Plug-in File, and in the browse window, navigate to the location of the “.npk” installation file for the plug-in (on the installation CD or the directory to which the file was downloaded from the website).
5
Select the file named ndm-x-x-x-x.npk (x-x-x-x represents the version, build, and platform numbers), and click Next to begin installation.

Removing the plug-in

2
In the NetVault Backup Clients list, select the client on which the plug-in is installed, and click Manage.
3
In the Installed Plug-ins table, select NDMP Client, and click the Remove Plugin button ().
