The following images show a configuration example of Veritas NetBackup software that uses VSS
snapshots. The configuration consists of two servers:
• One server runs the application and has an adequate backup client installed.
• The second server runs the backup software and acts also as the media server.
Figure 30 (page 75) shows a configured MS-Windows-NT backup policy for three drives (x, y, w)
on a computer named SRV-00-016. The backup is written to a storage unit labeled srv-00-015-disk.

Figure 31 (page 76) shows that the srv-00-015-disk storage unit is actually a disk drive that is
connected to server srv-00-015, which acts as the media server.
