Before you begin installing CloudPoint extensions
The CloudPoint extensions which can be installed on a VM or on a managed Kubernetes cluster, can elastically scale out the compute infrastructure to service a large number of jobs, and then scale in as well when the jobs have completed.
Refer to the general preparatory steps for installing CloudPoint that also apply for installing CloudPoint extensions.
Decide where to install CloudPoint extension.
Ensure that your environment meets system requirements..
(For a VM based extension) Create the instance or prepare the VM on which you want to install theCloudPoint extension.
See Creating an instance or preparing the host to install CloudPoint.
(For a VM based extension) Install Docker on the VM or the instance on which you want to deploy the extension.
Create and mount a volume to store CloudPoint data. For a VM based extension, the volume size can be 30 GB . For a managed Kubernetes cluster based extension, the file share size can be 30 GB.
See Creating and mounting a volume to store CloudPoint data.
Verify that specific ports are open on the instance or the main CloudPoint host and ensure that the hosts being protected are reachable from the extensions on required ports. Port 5671 needs to be opened for RabbitMQ communication on the CloudPoint host.
To install and configure the CloudPoint extension, you perform tasks from the NetBackup user interface in your browser and on the command line of your local computer or the application host.
