Adding a client to a policy

The clients list contains a list of the clients that are backed up during an automatic backup. In addition, a client that is specified in the policy should be an Enterprise Vault server.

Note:

You can add only one client to a policy, multiple clients are not supported in the same policy.

NetBackup client software must be installed on each system that hosts an Enterprise Vault database or is an Enterprise Vault server.

To add a client to a policy

In the Policy dialog box, click the Clients tab.
To access the Policy dialog box, double-click the policy name in the Policies list in the NetBackup Administration Console.
Click New and enter the client name in the interface.
For policy client name recommendations, see the following topic:
See About hosts for Enterprise Vault policies.
For more information about Enterprise Vault site and server aliases, see the Enterprise Vault Administrator's Guide.
Type the name of the client you want to add.
If the Enterprise Vault server is part of an Enterprise Vault cluster, then you must specify the virtual name of the Enterprise Vault server as the policy client.
