Report tab descriptions

The nbdeployutil utility examines the image headers in the NetBackup catalog to determine one of the following:

  • For traditional licensing, nbdeployutil determines the servers and clients in the NetBackup environment.

  • For capacity licensing, nbdeployutil determines the amount of data NetBackup protects. The way that the client policies and schedules are configured can affect the results.
