About NetBackup for OpenStack backup target types
NetBackup for OpenStack uses the universal share to store the backup images.
To configure the universal share, see the Configuring and managing universal shares chapter of the NetBackup Deduplication Guide.
While creating the universal share, in the Host field, add the IP addresses or the subnet of all the compute nodes and NetBackup for OpenStackvirtual machines.
For example,
IP addresses: 10.210.xxx.xx1, 10.210.xxx.xx2, 10.210.xxx.xx3, 10.210.xxx.xx4, 10.210.xxx.xx5, 10.210.xxx.xx6, ... 10.210.xxx.x20
Subnet: 10.210.128.0/20
Note:
Ensure that the compute nodes and NetBackup for OpenStackvirtual machines are accessible from the media server to mount the universal share on the compute nodes and NetBackup for OpenStackvirtual machines.
For the better performance, you can allocate the dedicated backup network to the compute nodes and use this network to mount the universal share.
