Step 2: Clients

Within the location, a new client is configured in GUI:Components->Topology->New Client. According to the operating system of that computer, either Windows, UNIX, VMS or NetWare platform is selected.

The client name which will be backed up (target client) is inserted into the GUI associated with the name of respective server within the network performing the backup tasks. The backup data may reside on the, server (typical); on the client (Remote Device) either on second disk drive or tape; or the data may be sent over a LAN or WAN to a Storage Area Network. If there is a name server (DNS) in the network, Sesam automatically selects the TCP/IP address. Otherwise it must be entered in the etc/hosts file.

For Operating System insert O/S installed on that computer.

If the client has several network cards, their TCP/IP names can be entered in Interfaces .

During configuration an attempt to contact the remote computer is executed (Sesam software must be installed on the target client).

Setup of the Secure Shell (SSH)-Client

To use ssh for client access mode, you must configure automatic login from Sesam server to the client by using the public key.
