View NetBackup host information

The Hosts application contains details about the NetBackup hosts in your environment, including the master server, media servers, and clients. Only hosts with a host ID are displayed in this list. The Host name reflects the NetBackup client name of a host, also referred to as the primary name of the host.

Note:

NetBackup discovers any dynamic IP addresses (DHCP or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol hosts) and adds these addresses to a host ID. You should delete these mappings.

For host name-based certificates for 8.0 and earlier NetBackup hosts, refer to the respective version of the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide.

To view NetBackup host information

  1. On the left, select Security > Hosts.

    Review the security status and any other host names mapped to this host.

  2. For additional details for this host, click the name of the host.
