Veritas NetBackup™ Bare Metal Restore™ Administrator's Guide

Deleting a client

When you delete a client, it removes only the client and its BMR configurations from the BMR database. It does not remove the NetBackup software on the client, nor remove it from NetBackup, nor delete the backups of the client.

You can delete a client but not remove it from the NetBackup policy that backs it up. If you do, the client is reregistered with BMR the next time it is backed up and appears in the Bare Metal Restore Clients view. (The NetBackup policy that backs it up is the policy that collects BMR information.)

To delete a client

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, click Bare Metal Restore Management > Hosts > Bare Metal Restore Clients.
  2. Right-click the client you want to delete.
  3. On the shortcut menu, select Delete.
  4. In the confirmation dialog box, click Yes.
