About installing and configuring Vault on Microsoft Windows systems

NetBackup Vault is installed on a Windows system when NetBackup is installed; no separate installation procedure is required.

To use Vault, you must enter a license as follows:

  • Your license may be a single license for the base NetBackup product and all NetBackup add-ons that you install, including Vault. If you have already installed NetBackup and entered the license, Vault is already licensed.

  • You may have a separate license specifically for the Vault option. If so, you must enter the Vault license before you can use Vault.

    See Adding a Vault license on a Windows system.

If you install a Vault in a cluster environment, you must license Vault on all systems in the cluster on which NetBackup primary servers are installed.

For more information about Administering NetBackup licenses, see the NetBackup Web UI Administrator's Guide.
