NetBackup™ Installation Guide

About binaries installed on primary and media servers

Starting with NetBackup 10.3, NetBackup no longer provides the primary server binaries on media servers. This change was made to reduce the installed footprint and minimize the number of potentially vulnerable components on media servers. Given the comprehensive nature of the software, NetBackup cannot provide an installed binary listing. NetBackup has a myriad of installation options available for primary and media servers, all of which affect the binaries installed.
