Veritas NetBackup™ CloudPoint Install and Upgrade Guide

Qumulo plug-in configuration notes

NetBackup provides a robust data protection solution for shares that are set up on a Network Attached Storage (NAS) storage host. NetBackup extends this NAS support and allows you to protect NFS exports that are hosted in a Qumulo environment. You can configure CloudPoint to discover and then perform backup and restore operations on Network File System (NFS) exports.

The CloudPoint plug-in for Qumulo contains the necessary functional logic that enables NetBackup to discover the NFS exports on the Qumulo cluster and then trigger snapshot create, export, deport, and delete operations for those exports. You must configure this plug-in on the NetBackup master server.

CloudPoint uses the REST API SDK Qumulo (qumulo-api) provides to communicate with the Qumulo assets. CloudPoint establishes a connection with Qumulo by using the RestClient library exposed by SDK and then uses the SDK methods to discover the NFS exports and their snapshots that need to be backed up.
