Get Networker version running on client

Fix: Method 1:

Inspect each client individually via NetWorker Administrator


On Unix:

1. Run nwadmin GUI

2. Go to Clients menu and select Client Setup.

3. Highlight the Client and scroll down to the NetWorker Version field.


On Windows:

1. Run NetWorker Administrator

2. Click on Manage Click

3. Right Click on the Client and select Edit

4. Click on the Client Information TAB.

5. Make not of version in the NetWorker Version field.

Note: The NetWorker Version Field will be empty if:

1- The client had not been backed up yet.

2- The NetWorker server is running an Eval License.

3- The NetWorker server has an Enterprise License.



Method 2:

Use nsradmin to query the NetWorker server for a list of all clients and the version being used.


1. From command line run


Windows:

C:\Program Files\nsr\res>nsradmin -f nsr.res

UNIX:

/nsr/res> nsradmin -f nsr.res



2. At the nsradmin prompt type:

nsradmin> . type:nsr client;


3. At the nsradmin prompt type:

nsradmin> show name;NetWorker version


4. At the nsradmin prompt type:

nsradmin> p


Sample Output:



C:\Program Files\nsr\res>nsradmin -f nsr.res

NetWorker administration program.

Use the "help" command for help.

nsradmin> . type:nsr client;


Current query set

nsradmin> show name;NetWorker version

nsradmin> p

name: fusion;

NetWorker version: 5.5.1.Build.115;


name: acerec;

NetWorker version: 7.0.Build.322;


name: flare;

NetWorker version: 6.0.Build.153;

If you use nsradmin, be very careful.

The attribute is not getting populated on client resource. Any other method

Hi ,
You can try the below ..
If you want a particualr client details..
echo "print type: NSR client;name:clinet-name" | /usr/sbin/nsradmin -i-

If you want all the clients details..
echo "print type: NSR client" | /usr/sbin/nsradmin -i-


Hope this helps
