How to register client in Networker from client end using command line
I know you could register client using command line from/in the Networker server itself as sample below.
C:>nsradmin
NetWorker administration program.
Use the "help" command for help, "visual" for full-screen mode.
nsradmin> create type:nsr client;name:nw2012nws;save set:"c:\\"
type: nsr client;
name: nw2012nws;
save set: "c:\\";
Create? y
created resource id 0.167.42.191.0.0.0.0.86.222.38.11.10.32.11.201(1)
nsradmin> q
My question is, how you do this from client end (Windows and linux server)?
I saw someone share for solaris at this thread Adding multiple Networker Clients using Solaris
The purpose is to directly register server/client to networker during server build process, instead of need to go to networker
Thanks in advance for your help

First of all, you must be a registered remote admin - otherwise NW could create the resource but you are not allowed to do that.
Then, at the NW client simply connect to the server:
nsradmin -s
If you see the prompt, just go ahead and use the nsradmin commands you mentioned.

Thanks bingo
never thought it is that easy.
tried from my end and its work
i take the remote admin that you mentioned is as below screenshot
Also, just for reference just want to share, i created a simple batch file to automate this, easier for build engineer
@echo off
setlocal
REM ##Define Hostname
for /F "tokens=*" %%H in ('hostname') do set hostname=%%H
REM ##Define Networker Server
set networkerserver=nw2012
REM ##Run Backup Activation to Networker
set nsrtext=register.txt
echo create type:nsr client; >> %nsrtext%
echo name:%hostname%; >> %nsrtext%
echo save set:"All"; >> %nsrtext%
echo group:All; >> %nsrtext%
nsradmin -s %networkerserver% -i %nsrtext%
del %nsrtext%
exit
