>> then quit it by just entering q & get out of the console.

Once you have the Networker Client name follow the below : 

->From the NetWorker Management Console (NMC), go to Protection tab 
->Then in the Clients column Search for that dedicated Failed client
->Then Right click on that client name & open the client properties
->Then go to Globals (1 of 2) , Check in that in the Aliases section & add the Networker Client name with all 3 pointers (i.e, Shortname, FQDN & IP).
->After updating the client details, kindly trigger the Full Backup as its a newly On boarded client & it will take Full Backup for the First time.

Please find below snip for the same:
>In the below we can find only two Aliases are added , one with the short name and more with the client name  
 

>>Here we have added the Networker Client name which will be different from the client’s name (domain will be different) 
 

>>Post triggering the backup will be get Successfully Completed.
