Dell EMC PowerMax and VMax array

The NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center plug-in for Dell EMC PowerMax and VMax lets you discover the SAN volumes on the PowerMax / Vmax array. You can create, delete, export, deport, and restore storage snapshots of a supported Dell EMC PowerMax / VMax that is registered with Dell EMC Unisphere. The plug-in supports the copy-on-write (COW) snapshot type. You must configure this plug-in on the NetBackup primary server.

NetBackup Snapshot Manager uses the REST API SDK provided by PowerMax/VMax (PyU4V) to communicate with the PowerMax/ VMax assets using the DELL EMC Unisphere APIs. NetBackup Snapshot Manager establishes a connection with the Dell EMC Unisphere on which the PowerMax / VMax array is managed. You can register NetBackup Snapshot Manager as a backup application and use the API endpoints to discover the SAN volumes and the snapshots to back up.
