Limitations and considerations
Consider the following when protecting cloud workloads
Deletion of Snapshot Manager host entry and its associated plug-ins is not supported in NetBackup.
If you delete plug-ins that are configured in NetBackup, you cannot recover any Snapshot Manager images that are associated with that plug-in.
Review the NetBackup Snapshot Manager Install and Upgrade Guide for information on the capabilities of Snapshot Manager.
If you have a previous installation of Snapshot Manager, Veritas recommends that you upgrade the Snapshot Manager and not reinstall it.
If you do reinstall the Snapshot Manager server, you need to reconfigure the Snapshot Manager and perform all the protection-related steps.
By default, Snapshot Manager is configured with port 443.
After the Snapshot Manager server is added, the host machine tries to use the IPv6 address to discover assets on cloud. If the IPV6 address is found on the host, the application is configured to use it. If an IPv6 address is not found, the IPv4 address is used.
For Snapshot Manager, enhanced auditing is not supported. Thus, when you add or update a Snapshot Manager, with non-root but NetBackup Admin rights, during auditing the user is shown as root.
If you deploy Snapshot Manager using the CloudFormation template, when you register the on-host agent with the Snapshot Manager node using the command, the IP address used must be private IP and not public IP.
Note:
Veritas recommends having swap space enabled on NetBackup primary servers that would be used to run backup from snapshot jobs for cloud asset groups. The recommended size for swap space must be greater than or equal to 1.5 times the system memory. In scenarios where swap space enablement is not available, it is recommended to have systems with higher memory configuration.
