Add to Server List options

Specifies the name of the media server that you want to add to the servers list.

If you add a server name to the list, Backup Exec must be able to resolve the name to a TCP/IP address. If Backup Exec cannot resolve the name to a TCP/IP address, the server name appears in the servers list. However, Backup Exec is unable to connect to it. Backup Exec can resolve the name if the NetWare server names and IP addresses are in your network’s Domain Naming Services (DNS) database. If these names and IP addresses are not in DNS, you must manually add the names and IP addresses to the media server’s HOSTS file. This file usually is found in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM 32\Drivers\ETC directory.

For these changes to take effect, you must restart the Backup Exec administration console.
