Replication using D-NAS policy
Using the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center you can replicate the hardware snapshots of NFS and SMB shares. The replicated snapshots are accessed on backup hosts and read by dynamic streams to create the point-in-time backup copies. The following procedure describes how to configure a NAS-Data-Protection policy to use hardware snapshots and replication of NAS volumes.
Note:
For all the supported NAS storage arrays for replication, refer to the NetBackup Snapshot Manager section, under Snapshot Solutions in the NetBackup Hardware and Cloud Storage Compatibility List (HCL).
Table: Configuration steps
Step | Description | Reference topic |
---|---|---|
1 | Configure the NetBackup Snapshot Manager server in NetBackup. | For more details, refer to the Installation and Upgrade chapter of the NetBackup™ Snapshot Manager for Data Center Administrator's Guide. |
2 | Configure the NAS storage array plug-in. | For more details, see the Configure NetBackup snapshot manager storage array plug-ins chapter of the NetBackup™ Snapshot Manager for Data Center Administrator's Guide. |
3 | Add the backup hosts to a backup host pool. The backup hosts are responsible for data streaming. | |
4 | Configure the SLP to use snapshot and replication | For more details about replication, refer to these chapters in the NetBackup™ Snapshot Manager for Data Center Administrator's Guide:
|
5 | Configure a NAS-Data-Protection policy to perform the operations that are specified in the SLP. |
