NetBackup™ Web UI Cloud Administrator's Guide

Associate media servers with a Snapshot Manager

You can use a media server to offload the snapshot and restore jobs of your cloud. To enable that you must associate one or more media servers to a Snapshot Manager. The media servers must be in an active state to run the snapshot or restore jobs. The media server that you associate with the Snapshot Manager must be associated to your NetBackup primary server also. However, the discovery jobs run on the NetBackup primary server only.

To associate media servers with a Snapshot Manager

  1. On the left, click Workloads > Cloud.
  2. Click on the Snapshot Managers tab.
  3. From the menu next to the Snapshot Manager, click Advanced settings.
  4. In the Media server tab, select one or more media servers that you want to associate with the Snapshot Manager.
  5. Click Save.
