Add a Snapshot Manager
You can add a Snapshot Manager using NetBackup WebUI. You must provide the Snapshot Manager credentials and validate the certificate.
Note:
To allow backups from snapshots, bi-directional connectivity is required between Snapshot Manager and NetBackup servers
To add a Snapshot Manager
- On the left, click Cloud.
- Click on the Snapshot Manager tab.
- Click Add.
- In the Snapshot Manager field, enter one of the following:
The host name or IP address of the Snapshot Manager.
The host name or IP address must be the same as the one you have provided at the time of Snapshot Manager configuration during Snapshot Manager installation.
If the DNS server is configured, enter the FDQN of the Snapshot Manager.
- In Port field, enter the port number for the Snapshot Manager.
The default port value is 443.
- Click Validate.
- In the Validate certificate dialog box, click Accept.
- Enter the Snapshot Manager credentials that have provided at the time of Snapshot Manager installation.
- Click Save.
Note:
If NetBackup security level is set to VERY HIGH, an additional field Token is shown where you can provide a Standard Host Token. This is required for NetBackup certificates generation on Snapshot Manager. You may need to contact the security administrator or a backup administrator for requesting the additional security permissions required for generating the token.
