Fine.
Install the NW client and storage node SW. Make sure that you server name is added correctly.
Then on the NW server, use the device configuration wizard to add the device.
This is it.

SW = Software (packages).
HW = Hardware
NW = NetWorker
GW = Guessware ... just kidding :-)
When you install the software, simply select the appropriate option.
On Linux/UNIX, you will see separate packages.
On Windows, the installation option includes (invisibly) the installation of the NW client SW.

Add also root@storage_node (if UNIX/Linux) or SYSTEM@storage_node and administrator@storage_node (if Windows). From that point, you can define devices on storage node and then you can test backups by changing storage node client storage node to be itself.

Admin list. Go to NMC and you have two choices:
- add it under Users and Groups management
- or click on properties of server and update administrator list there

ranstorm,
On windows when you select the storage node component during installation, it installs the client component of NetWorker. The client component of NetWorker is the basic component. Please follow the instructions to get things going.

You have installed Storage Node and Client software on the storage node in question but have you configured any devices for this storage node.
Also, to add all users on the storage node to the admin list just run the command on the NetWorker server.
Once you have the devices configured, go to the client properties -> Globals 2 of 2 and mention the storage node hostname as the first entry in the "Storage NOdes" Field.
