Data Store Folders are Remote to the Backup Server
When the data store source machine is remote to the Arcserve Backup Server, use this method to back up deduplication data stores to a tape. You must first install the Arcserve Backup Client Agent on the source machine. After that you can add the source machine to the Arcserve Backup Manager and perform the backup process.
Follow these steps:
- Manually install the Arcserve Backup Client Agent on the remote machine.
- From the Arcserve Backup Manager, add the source machine where the data store resides.
- From the Quick Start pane, click Backup.
- On the right pane, click the Source tab.
- From the Group view, right click Client Agent, Add Machine/Object.
The Add Agent dialog opens.

- Select Use VSS and clear Revert to traditional backup if VSS fails.
- Click OK.
- Submit the backup job. For more information on submitting a backup job, see Submit a Backup Job in the Arcserve Backup Administration Guide.
Note: When data store folders reside on a single volume, a single backup session is created on the Arcserve Tape media. Similarly, when data store folders reside on multiple volumes, then as many multiple sessions are created on the Arcserve Tape media.
