Preparing OpenStack
Perform the following tasks to prepare OpenStack for NetBackup:
- Update firewall settings so that the backup hosts can communicate with the OpenStack endpoints - Nova, Keystone, Glance, Cinder, and Neutron. 
- Ensure that backup hosts can communicate with the NetBackup Master Server. 
- The backup host must be deployed in the compute node. See Managing backup hosts. 
- Add the entries of the controller node and the compute node to the - /etc/hostsfile on the associated backup hosts. You must add the hostname in FQDN format or add the appropriate DNS entries in the- /etc/resolv.conffile.- Or - Add the appropriate DNS entries in the - /etc/resolve.conffile.
- Use consistent conventions for hostnames of backup hosts, media servers, and master server. For example, if you are using the hostname as openstack.veritas.com (FQDN format), use the same everywhere. 
- Display name and hostname of the backup hosts should be the same.
