Third-Party Backup Software for Network Backups

You may back up your data volumes over the network to local area network (LAN)-attached backup servers. This backup requires that you already have a backup server on your network.

You are recommended to use backup software network accelerator agents to greatly improve network backup performance.

Installing Network Accelerator Agents

VERITAS Backup Exec and Computer Associates ARCserve network accelerator agents can both be installed remotely by installing the agent to the system from a remote system on the network.

See the documentation for your backup software for more information on how to install the network accelerator agents.
