NetBackup™ for Greenplum Administrator's Guide

Add clients to a policy

The client list contains a list of the clients on which your scripts are run during an automatic backup. This list determines the clients that can send backup requests to the application schedule. A NetBackup client must be in at least one policy but can be in more than one.

For a NetBackup for Greenplum policy, clients you want to add must have the following items installed or available:

  • Greenplum

  • NetBackup client or server

  • The backup or restore scripts

To add clients to a policy

  1. Open the policy and select the Clients tab.
  2. Select Add.
  3. Type the name of the client and select the hardware and operating system of the client.

    You need to add the coordinator, the standby coordinator, and all the segment hosts to the clients list.

  4. Select Add.
