About AdvancedDisk data movers

A data mover transfers data from primary storage (a NetBackup client) to secondary storage during backups. It also can move data back to primary storage during restores and from secondary storage to tertiary storage during duplication.

You do not configure data movers separately. For AdvancedDisk, NetBackup media servers function as both storage servers and data movers. Data movers are configured when you configure storage servers.
