You can choose two integration setups, depending on where the Arcserve Backup server is installed. One setup configuration involves installing the Arcserve Backup server on the Replica server, while the other setup configuration involves having the Arcserve Backup server as a separate stand-alone server.
The following chart lists the supported configuration versions for integration between Arcserve Backup and Arcserve Replication:
Note: Releases of Arcserve Replication prior to r15 were named with variations of CA XOsoft.

In addition, decide whether you will install the Arcserve Backup Client Agent on the Master server.
The benefits of installing the Client Agent on the Master server are as follows:
If the Client Agent is not installed on the Master server, you have to restore the Replica server and then perform an Arcserve Replication "reverse replication" (from Replica to Master) to help ensure that the Master server is fully up-to-date when you switch back to it.
