Changing the NetWorker servers with access to the host
By default, any NetWorker server can:
◆ Backup this host.
◆ Perform a directed recover to this host.
To define the NetWorker servers that can perform backups and directed recoveries on this
host:
1. Shutdown the NetWorker daemons:
Unix: nsr_shutdown
Windows: Stop the NetWorker Backup and Recovery service.
2. Edit or create the /nsr/res/servers file on a UNIX host or the C:\Program Files\EMC
NetWorker\nsr\res\servers file on Windows.
Specify the shortname and FDQN for each NetWorker server, one per line, that require
access to the NetWorker host. The first entry in this file becomes the default NetWorker
server.

When you do not specify any servers, any NetWorker server can back up or perform a
directed recovery to the host.
