NetBackup™ Snapshot Manager for Data Center Administrator's Guide

IBM SAN Volume Controller plug-in

NetBackup provides a robust data protection solution for volumes that are set up on a Storage Area Network (SAN) storage host. NetBackup extends SAN support and lets you protect mounted iSCSI/FC volumes that are hosted on an IBM SVC array.

The Snapshot Manager for Data Center plug-in for IBM SVC contains the functional logic that enables NetBackup to discover SAN volumes and consistency groups on the array. It can also initiate snapshot to create, export, deport, and delete operations for volumes and consistency groups. You must configure this plug-in on the NetBackup primary server to discover the volumes and consistency groups, and perform backup and restore operations.

Snapshot Manager for Data Center uses the REST API supported by the IBM SVC family to communicate with the IBM SVC assets.
