NetVault Plug-in for Hyper-V 10.5 - User Guide

Creating a Virtual Client

The Virtual Client creation process is not plug-in-specific, and you can find complete details in the Dell NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide. However, consider the following point during the Virtual Client creation process:
Assign a name to the Virtual Client: Dell strongly recommends that you use the cluster network name — that is, the FQDN — assigned to Hyper‑V® Cluster as the NetVault Backup Virtual Client name. When you browse a Virtual Client, NetVault Backup locates the node currently in control of the clustered application, and reveals the Hyper‑V Server — for example, on the NetVault Backup Selections page. With a Virtual Client name set up as the Hyper‑V Server network name, you can recognize the Hyper‑V Server for which the Virtual Client was created.

Licensing the plug-in

The plug-in requires separate license keys for clustered and standalone environments. For a clustered environment, you must apply the license to the physical client for the NetVault Backup Server; if you also use the same physical client for standalone protection, you must apply a separate standalone license to the same client. For information on the licensing process, including how to obtain the proper license keys, see the Dell NetVault Backup Installation Guide.
