About the File System agent
The File System agent enables an application administrator to protect and recover data on the file system host. PowerProtect Data Manager integrates with the File System agent to check and monitor backup compliance against protection policies. PowerProtect Data Manager also enables central scheduling for backups.
You can install the File System agent on the host that you plan to protect by using the installation wizard. Installing and uninstalling the File System agent on AIX, Installing and updating the File System agent on Linux, and Installing and updating the File System agent on Windows provide instructions.
Software compatibility information for the PowerProtect Data Manager software and the File System agent is provided in the E-Lab Navigator.
