NetBackup 11.0 binary sizes
The following table contains the approximate binary sizes of the NetBackup 11.0 primary server, media server, and client software for the various supported operating systems. These binary sizes indicate the amount of disk space occupied by the product after an initial installation. Note that for the sizes listed in the table, 1 MB equals 1024 KB.
Note:
The Java GUI is optional on all primary servers, media servers, and client computers. The JRE packages are required on primary servers, but optional for most media servers and client computers. The package sizes were calculated with the Java GUI and JRE included.
Note:
The table lists only the supported operating systems. For up-to-date information about the specific operating system versions that NetBackup currently supports, check the Installation and Upgrade Checklist on the Services and Operations Readiness Tools (SORT) website, or the NetBackup Compatibility List for all Versions.

The following space requirements also apply to some NetBackup installations on Windows:
If you install NetBackup in a custom location on a Windows system, some portions of the software are installed on the system drive regardless of the primary application folder location. The space that is required on the system drive generally accounts for 40 to 50 percent of the total binary size that is listed in the table.
If you install NetBackup server on a Windows cluster, some portions of the software are installed on the cluster shared disk. Note, the space that is required on the cluster shared disk is in addition to the binary size that is listed in the table. The additional required space is equivalent to 15 to 20 percent of the total binary size.
