Creating application instances

You can create application instances from the System topology page of the Flex Appliance Console. Navigate to the Application instances section and click Create instance to open a new page that lets you create instances of the following applications for NetBackup release 8.2:

  • NetBackup master server

    You can also configure a BMR master server with this application. However, the BMR boot server cannot be configured on the appliance.

  • NetBackup media server with the following storage options:

    • Media Server Deduplication Pool (MSDP)

    • AdvancedDisk

    • Cloud Catalyst

    Note:

    You cannot use both MSDP and Cloud Catalyst storage in the same application instance.

For a full list of supported applications and versions, see the following article on the Veritas Support website:
