The Symantec Livestate Recovery 3.0x allows the agent portion of the product ONLY to be installed on a Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6a system; previous builds of Windows NT are not compatible with the Symantec Livestate Recovery 3.0x product.

The Symantec Livestate Recovery 3.0x console, what is use to administer and monitor agents, is not able to be install on a Windows NT 4.0 due to various system requirements not present on this Windows OS platform; attempting to install from the product CD this portion of the product would result in errors or a incorrectly functioning console interface.

The agent portion of the product allows the creation of recovery point images of Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6a system to a storage destination; check the user guide

for more information on what storage destinations are compatible with this version.

To add a computer to a group

3. In the tree pane of the advanced view, click on the group where to add the Windows NT 4 system to.
