Enabling this option creates a CloudCatalyst storage server that can be used to upload deduplicated data to the cloud. This option is grayed out if any of the following cases are true:
See the NetBackup compatibility lists for support information: http://www.netbackup.com/compatibility For information about CloudCatalyst, see the NetBackup Deduplication Guide | |
Enter the mount path to be used as the storage path on the CloudCatalyst storage server. For example: /space/mnt/esfs The deduplicated data is written to this local cache directory before it is uploaded to the cloud. The larger the cache, the more likely that NetBackup can service requests locally, avoiding cloud access to read and write. Notes:
