How to configure the CloudPoint cloud plug-ins?

CloudPoint plug-ins are software modules that enable the discovery of your assets in the cloud or in an on-premise environment. After registering the CloudPoint server with the NetBackup master server, you must configure the CloudPoint plug-ins to be able to protect your workloads using NetBackup.

How you configure the plug-ins depends on the asset type and how CloudPoint is deployed. If the CloudPoint server is deployed in the cloud and you want to protect workloads in the cloud, you must use the NetBackup Web UI to register the CloudPoint server and configure the CloudPoint cloud and application plug-ins. The overall steps to configure the plug-ins are similar, regardless of the asset type. Only the configuration parameters vary.

Refer to the NetBackup Web UI Cloud Administrator's Guide for information on how to configure cloud plug-ins.
