DELL EMC PowerScale (Isilon) plug-in configuration prerequisites

  • Ensure that the SnapshotIQ license is activated on the storage array. This is required to perform snapshot operations.

  • For the list of all the supported Data OneFS versions, refer to the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center section in the NetBackup Hardware and Cloud Storage Compatibility List (HCL).

  • Ensure that the SyncIQ license is activated on the Dell EMC PowerScale (Isilon) and SyncIQ service is on. This is required to initiate a replication operation.

  • For replication operation, both source and target Dell EMC PowerScale (Isilon) array plug-ins must be registered with NetBackup.
