About Snapshot Manager for Data Center
Snapshot Manager for Data Center is developed as a micro-services-based application and uses the micro-services model of deployment. It provides a variety of snapshot-based features for NetBackup.
Snapshot Manager for Data Center discovers devices on various storage arrays and manages snapshot lifecycle management of these devices. You can connect these devices over Fibre Channel, iSCSI networks (SANs) or as NAS devices using NFS or SMB protocol. When you use NetBackup in an on-premises environment, you can protect the workload data residing on the supported on-premises storage arrays.
