The NetWorker Console server, NetWorker servers, and NetWorker storage nodes are also NetWorker clients. 148 VLS Configuration and Backup Application Guidelines

EMC NetWorker
This section includes both general and deduplication guidelines as well as other useful information
for EMC Networker.
EMC NetWorker Application Overview
EMC Networker is based on a client/server architecture and comprises several distinct components:
Console server: all EMC NetWorker servers and clients are managed from the NetWorker
Console server. The Console server also provides reporting and monitoring capabilities for
the servers and clients.
Web browser: the Console server is accessed through a graphical interface that can be run
from any computer that has a web browser. Multiple users can access the Console server
concurrently from different browser sessions. A computer that hosts the web browser can also
be a NetWorker client.
Datazone: a datazone is a single NetWorker server and its client computers. Datazones can
be added as backup requirements increase.
NetWorker server: NetWorker servers provide services to back up and recover data for the
NetWorker client computers in a datazone.
NetWorker storage node: a NetWorker storage node can be used to improve performance
by offloading much of the data movement from the Networker server involved in a backup or
recovery operation.
NetWorker client: a NetWorker client computer is any computer whose data must be backed
up. The NetWorker Console server, NetWorker servers, and NetWorker storage nodes are
also NetWorker clients.
