Client Attributes dialog box

Client Attributes properties apply to clients of currently selected master servers.

The Global client attributes apply to all clients, unless overridden as described:

Select this option to allow all clients to browse files for restoring. This attribute is overridden if the Browse and restore ability option on the General tab is set to Deny both for a particular client(s).

Allow client restore

Select this option to allow all clients to restore files. This attribute is overridden if the Browse and restore ability option on the General tab is set to Allow browse only or Deny both.

Clients list

This is a list of clients in the client database on the currently selected master server(s). A client must be in the client database before you can change the client properties in the Client Attributes dialog box.

The client database consists of directories and files in the following directory:

Install_path\NetBackup\db\client

If a client is not listed in the Clients list, click Add to add clients. To remove a client from the Clients list, select the client, then click Remove.

The name that is entered here must match the Client Name property for the specific client. If it does not, the client cannot browse its own backups.

See Client Name properties.

Use the bpclient command to add clients to the client database if dynamic addressing (DHCP) is in use.

Additional information about dynamic host names and IP addressing is available in the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume II.
