HPE XP SAN Storage array

The CloudPoint plug-in for HPE XP (XP7 and XP8) enables NetBackup to discover SAN volumes on the HPE XP array and then trigger snapshot create, export, deport, delete, and restore operations for them. You must configure this plug-in on the NetBackup primary server.

CloudPoint uses the REST API hosted on HPE XP Configuration Manager to communicate with the HPE XP storage arrays. It establishes a connection with HPE XP storage array by creating sessions in HPE XP Configuration Manager and uses the REST APIs to discover the SAN volumes and their snapshots that need to be backed up.
