NetBackup™ Web UI Administrator's Guide

Migrating or updating MSDP Cloud and CMS

You can update only Access key credentials to CMS. You cannot update the configured credentials for an older disk pool to CMS to use other authentication types. Upgraded credentials to use in CMS must be Access key based.

To migrate or update MSDP Cloud

  1. If using an MSDP on an old NetBackup version, configure MSDP cloud for any cloud provider by providing credentials in the Access details for account section.
  2. Run a backup and restore.
  3. Upgrade the MSDP to the newest version.
  4. Click on the MSDP cloud disk pool that was configured in the previous release.
  5. In the Associate credentials box, select Actions > Replace. Or, to update the credentials for the disk pool, select Edit.
  6. Select Continue.
  7. Provide the appropriate credentials and select Next.
  8. Follow the steps from Credential Management.
  9. Select Save.
  10. Restart the NetBackup services on the primary server and the media server.
