CDP Architecture
The CDP gateway is configured on a NetBackup media server. Once configuration is done, NetBackup starts the nbcctd daemon on the CDP gateway. This process services all IOs from ESX and enables other NetBackup components on the gateway to take backup. To backup this data, you also need to configure an MSDP or OST accelerator-based STU. You can configure multiple CDP gateways and MSDP/OST accelerator-based STUs as required. NetBackup REST APIs for CDP are a web API interface to leverage this feature. Refer NetBackup REST APIs Swagger documentation for more information.
