DESCRIPTION
Use the vwcp_manage command to install or uninstall the NetBackup plug-in for VMware vSphere Web Client.
Note:
On a NetBackup 8.1 or later master server, you can enter vwcp_manage without options to launch the plug-in installation screens. On the NetBackup appliance, you must log on to the appliance as a NetBackupCLI user. Then you enter vwcp_manage with its options, to specify the action, vCenter server, and so forth (see ).
For further information on installing the plug-in, see the NetBackup Plug-in for VMware vSphere Web Client Guide.
OPTIONS
- --acceptVCenterCertificates
Use this option if you want to accept all the certificates that NetBackup receives from the vCenter server.
If you have enabled the VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED configuration option and have specified either --acceptVCenterCertificates or --thumbprints option, the vCenter server certificate validation takes place using the command-line interface.
If you have enabled the VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED configuration option, but have not specified either --acceptVCenterCertificates or --thumbprints option, the NetBackup plug-in for vSphere Client console is launched. You can use this console for vCenter server certificate validation.
- -h, --help
Displays the help message.
- -l url --url=url
The URL for either the
netbackup-vwc-plugin.zipor the netbackup-vwc-plugin-html5ui.zip (for vCenter versions 7.0 or later) file on the plug-in package host (web server).This option is only required to install the plug-in from a custom location, such as from a NetBackup media server and a separate plug-in package host.
- -o port --port=port
The vCenter port. The default is 443.
- -p passfile passfile=passfile
The passfile is the path to a text file that contains only the vCenter password.
The password file should not have world readable or writable permissions. After the operation is completed, for security reasons you should delete the password file.
- --register
Registers and installs the plug-in.
- -t thumbprint --thumbprints=thumbprint
Specify the thumbprint of the vCenter server certificate. For multiple certificates, separate each certificate with a comma. For example: -t "84:C0:35:1D:14:B5:6D:9B:01:85:A9:16:DA:32:8C:AA:0D:82:F4:77, 37:3F:B2:D3:0E:04:64:DC:D8:6B:B4:77:FF:BB:DE:E5:D1:43:C5:43"
If the specified thumbprint matches the vCenter server certificate thumbprint, the associated certificate is used for host communication.
If you have enabled the VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED configuration option and have used either --acceptVCenterCertificates or --thumbprints option, the vCenter server certificate validation takes place using the command-line interface.
If you have enabled the VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED configuration option, but have not specified --acceptVCenterCertificates and --thumbprints options, the NetBackup plug-in for vSphere Client console is launched. You can use this console for vCenter server certificate validation.
- -u username, --username=username
The vCenter user name.
- --unregister
Unregisters and uninstalls the plug-in.
- --upgrade
Use this option to upgrade the plug-in.
- -v vCenter_server, --vcenter=vCenter_server
The vCenter server where the plug-in is to be installed.
- --validate
Verifies the connection to the vCenter server and validates the vCenter credentials.
