Nutanix Files plug-in configuration notes
Veritas 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 file services that are hosted in a Nutanix Files environment. You can configure CloudPoint to discover and then perform backup and restore operations on Nutanix Files shares that are exposed as Network File System (NFS) exports.
The CloudPoint plug-in for Nutanix Files contains the necessary functional logic that enables NetBackup to discover the shares on the Nutanix Files server and then trigger snapshot create, export, deport, and delete operations for those shares. You must configure this plug-in on the NetBackup master server.
CloudPoint uses the Nutanix REST APIs to communicate with the Nutanix Files File Server. CloudPoint establishes a connection with Nutanix Files File Server by registering itself as a backup application and then uses the API endpoints to discover the shares and their snapshots that need to be backed up.
