Hi

I have a NetBackup Windows client, that has a stand-alone drive (LTO4). How can I use it in NetBackup? Do I need to upgrade the client to media server? Or maybe enterprise client?

Thanks for any advice.

If the client will only backup itself, you need Enterprise Client license and will have to install media server software.
Think careful before you take this step - media management on Standalone drives is a nightmare. Just search this forum for references to media management with standalone drives......
