Dell EMC PowerStore plug-in configuration prerequisites

Before you configure the Dell EMC PowerStore plug-in, ensure the following:

  • Ensure that a supported version of Dell EMC PowerStore is installed on the arrays.

  • For the list of all the supported versions of Dell EMC PowerStore, refer to the NetBackup Snapshot Manager section in the NetBackup Hardware and Cloud Storage Compatibility List(HCL).

  • A user account with the permissions to invoke the Dell EMC PowerStore REST APIs and perform all snapshot operations on the array. For plug-in registration with NetBackup you can use an administrator or storage-administrator user account based on the specific role you want for the owner of backup support.

  • To configure the array in NetBackup, use the IP/ FQDN of the array. The current support only provides the ability to configure IPV4. For IPV4 access, provide the management IP. For FQDN, the management FQDN address is: https://powerstore-management-company-dell.com.
