NetBackup™ Troubleshooting Guide

Using the Host properties to access configuration settings

The Host properties allow you to access to many configuration settings for NetBackup clients and servers. For example, you can modify the server list, email notification settings, and various timeout values for servers and clients. The following are general instructions for accessing these settings.

The NetBackup Client Properties dialog box in the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface on Windows clients lets you change NetBackup configuration settings only for the local computer where you are running the interface. Most settings in the NetBackup Client Properties dialog box are also available in the Host properties in the NetBackup web UI.

To use the host properties to access configuration settings

  1. Sign in to the NetBackup web UI.
  2. On the left, click Hosts > Host properties.
  3. Select the host that you want to update and click Connect.
  4. Depending on the host type, click one of the following:
    • Edit primary server

    • Edit media server

    • Edit client

  5. Select the property that you want to edit and make the changes.
