NetApp plug-in configuration notes
The CloudPoint plug-in for NetApp NAS and SAN lets you create, delete, restore, export, and deport snapshots of the following assets on the NetApp storage arrays:
NetApp Logical Unit Number (LUNs) storage units in a SAN environment.
LUNs appear under the Disks pane in the CloudPoint user interface (UI) dashboard.
NetApp NFS shares in a NAS environment.
Shares appear under the Shares pane in the CloudPoint UI dashboard.
Before you configure the NetApp plug-in, verify the following:
Ensure that the NetApp storage arrays have the necessary NetApp licenses that are required to perform snapshot operations.
For NAS-based storage deployments, ensure that the NetApp shares are configured using an active
junction_path.Ensure that the NetApp user account that you provide to CloudPoint has privileges to perform the following operations on the NetApp array:
create snapshot
delete snapshot
restore snapshot
Ensure that the NetApp user account that you provide to CloudPoint is configured with
httpandontapiaccess methods.Ensure that the NetApp user account that you provide to CloudPoint has the following roles assigned:
Default: readonly
lun: all
volume snapshot: all
vserver export-policy: all
