3.1  Introduction 
GFI Backup Agents with a workstation license can back up data from systems that are not 
running a server type of OS, for example, Microsoft Windows 7. Agents running under a 
workstation license cannot, for example, be used to backup Microsoft SQL Server data. This 
chapter describes the tasks that can be performed when the GFI Backup Agent is licensed 
as a workstation.
