About running the NetBackup Administration Console locally
On Windows platforms, select to start the console.
On supported UNIX platforms, the console is run locally if jnbSA or jbpSA is entered on the same host on which the console appears. That is, your display environment variable is set to the host on which the jnbSA or jbpSA commands were entered.
Improvements in Java technology have made remote X-display back potentially viable on some platforms. However, problems continue with certain controls in the consoles. For example, incorrect box operations, sluggish scrolling, and display problems in tables with many rows. More serious issues have also occurred. Consoles can abort and hang because of a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) failure when run in this mode on some platforms. These JVM failures are most often seen on the AIX platform. Therefore, Veritas cannot recommend running the consoles in a remote X-display back configuration.
