To perform Active Directory granular backups and restores, ensure that you meet the following requirements:
The Network File System (NFS) must be installed on the media server and all Active Directory domain controllers or ADAM/LDS hosts.
See About installing and configuring Network File System (NFS) for Active Directory Granular Recovery.
See About configuring Services for Network File System (NFS).
The NetBackup Client Service must be configured to log on as an account with domain privileges.
To perform granular backups and restores of the Active Directory, the NetBackup Legacy Client Service (bpinetd) must run under the domain administrator account on the Active Directory domain controller or ADAM server. By default, bpinetd runs under the Local System account.
