VMware backup hosts dialog box

The VMware backup hosts properties appear if the NetBackup Enterprise Client license is installed. The properties apply to currently selected master servers.

A VMware backup host is a server on the same SAN as a VMware ESX server. The VMware ESX server must be able to access the snapshot of the VMware virtual machine and provide access to the files for third-party backup vendors.

Click Add to add a server to the list of backup hosts.

To delete a server from the list, select the server and click Remove.

For more information on VMware snapshots, see the NetBackup for VMware Administrator's Guide.
