Dell EMC PowerStore NAS plug-in configuration notes
Veritas NetBackup provides a robust data protection solution for filesystems set on the storage host. NetBackup extends the NAS support to allow you to protect filesystems based on the protocols (NFS and SMB) that are hosted in a Dell EMC PowerStore array environment.
You can configure CloudPoint to discover data, perform backup, and then restore operations on NFS and SMB filesystems.
Dell EMC PowerStore contains functional logic which enables NetBackup to discover the filesystems on the Dell EMC PowerStore array. Then triggers snapshot create, export, deport, and delete operations for filesystems.
You must configure the plug-in on the NetBackup primary server.
CloudPoint uses the SDK exposed by the Dell EMC called as python-powerstore (1.4.0).
Python-PowerStore calls the Dell EMC PowerStore family APIs to communicate and get Dell EMC PowerStore assets.
A connection is established to Dell EMC PowerStore array through REST and then the SDK methods are used to discover the filesystems and the snapshots to be backed up.
