About NetVault Backup Clients

The NetVault Backup Clients are machines that you want to protect using the NetVault Backup solution.

These machines require at least the client version of NetVault Backup and TCP/IP connectivity to the server. You can attach physical and virtual storage devices locally to a client after installing the NetVault Backup SmartClient license on it.

To use a client in a backup or restore operation, you must first add the client to the NetVault Backup Server. A single server and its associated clients form a NetVault Backup Domain.
