NetApp E-Series plug-in configuration parameters
Before you configure the plug-in, verify the following:
To view all the supported versions of NetApp E-Series, refer to the NetBackup Snapshot Manager section, in the NetBackup Hardware and Cloud Storage Compatibility List (HCL).
A user account which has the permissions to invoke the NetApp E-Series APIs on the system.
Specify the following details when you configure the NetApp E-Series array:
Table: NetApp E-Series plug-in configuration parameters
Snapshot Manager for Data Center configuration parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Plug-in ID | Provide a name for the plug-in. |
Proxy/Array IP address | IP address of the computer where NetApp E-series is installed or proxy server address on which array is added. |
Port | Port number of the REST API server. |
Username | User account which has permission to perform snapshot operations on the NetApp E-Series array. |
Password | Password for the user account. |
Storage array WWN | WWN of the array |
You can find the storage array WWN in the array details.
To get the array details, use the following API:
https://<array / proxy IP>:<port no>/devmgr/v2/storage-systems
Do the following to allow NetBackup Snapshot Manager to perform snapshot management operations.
Ensure that the NetApp E-Series user account which is used for plug-in configuration has the privileges to perform the following operations:
Create snapshot
Export snapshot
Delete snapshot
The RBAC (role-based access control) capabilities include predefined users with one or more roles that are mapped with the user accounts. Each role includes permissions for accessing tasks in Unified Manager or system manager.
Following are the roles defined with the access rights to perform tasks:
Storage admin: Full read or write access to storage objects on the arrays, but no access to the security configuration.
Security admin: Access to the security configuration in Access Management and Certificate Management.
Support admin: Access to all hardware resources on the storage arrays, failure data, and MEL events. No access to the storage objects or security configuration.
Monitor: Read-only access to all storage objects, but no access to the security configuration.
