Add protection to the assets

The Namespaces tab (Workloads > Kubernetes), lets you monitor the assets in your Kubernetes clusters, see their protection status, and easily add protection to any unprotected assets. You can also take a quick backup of asset using the backup now feature. This feature creates a one-time backup of the selected asset without affecting any scheduled backups.

The Namespaces tab displays with all the discovered and imported Kubernetes assets that NetBackup can protect. This tab displays the following information:

  • Namespaces: Display name of the asset.

  • Cluster: The cluster to which the asset belongs.

  • Protected by: Name of the protection plan applied to the asset.

  • Last successful backup: Date and time of the last successful backup of the asset.

You can perform the following action in the Namespaces tab.

To add protection to an unprotected asset

  1. On the left, click Workloads > Kubernetes.
  2. Select the option in the rows of the assets. Click Add protection on top right. Alternatively, click the Actions menu in the row of the asset and click Add protection.
  3. Select a protection plan from the list and click Next. In the next page, click Protect.

To quickly back up an asset

  1. Select the option in the rows of the assets, click Backup now on top right. Alternatively, click the Actions menu in the row of the asset and click Backup now.
  2. In the next page,
    • If you backup an already protected asset, select a protection plan from the list of plans to which the asset is already subscribed, and click Start backup.

    • If you are backing up an unprotected asset, select a protection plan from the available plans for the asset, click Start backup.
