Downloading the NetBackup Administration Console to a Windows computer from a NetBackup appliance

You can download the NetBackup Administration Console software from a NetBackup appliance to a Windows computer that you want to use to access the appliance. The Windows computer does not require NetBackup installation to use the administration console. The logon page of the NetBackup Appliance Web Console provides a Download Packages section to download the NetBackup Administration Console package.

In addition to the downloading instructions, this procedure also includes the steps to extract and install the downloaded files on to the client.

  2. Open a browser window and enter the appliance URL.
