NetBackup™ Installation Guide

Continuing with NetBackup software installation

After you have installed the primary server software, you are ready to install media server software or client software depending on your environment.

  • If you have media servers in your system, you are ready to install media server software.

    See Installing NetBackup media server software on Linux.

  • If there are no media servers in your environment, you are ready to install client software on client computers.

    • See Installing UNIX clients locally.

    • To install client software on clients from the primary server location (recommended), you must first install the client type software on the primary server.

      See Installing client type software on a primary server.
