Operator configuration on Kubernetes side

You must create a Kubernetes secret resource, as a part of the required configuration at the Kubernetes cluster for running the NetBackup Kubernetes operator. The file name of the secret must be the same as of the configured primary server and the namespace must be the same where NetBackup Kubernetes operator is running. The API key and CA certificate of the NetBackup primary server are required in the configuration at the Kubernetes cluster end.

Note:

Contact the Security Administrator or the NetBackup Administrator to fetch the NetBackup CA certificate.

Here is the format of the secret. Provide the values as specified in the pointed brackets:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: <NetBackp primary server host name or IP address.>>
  namespace: <Namespace name where the NetBackup Kubernetes operator 
is deployed>>
type: Opaque
stringData:
  apiKey: <API key of the primary server>>
  caCert: "<CA certificate of the primary server>>"

Contact your security administrator for the API key and the CA certificate.
