Protect applications in-cloud with application-consistent snapshots
You can take application consistent (point-in-time) snapshots of the applications that are deployed on VMs in the cloud. This lets you perform a point-in-time recovery of applications.
You can perform original location and alternate location restores for these workloads.
For alternate location restoration, consider the following:
For alternate location restore of MS SQL workloads, the target host must be discovered but the application status should not be in a connected or configured state.
For alternate location restore of Oracle workloads, the target host must be discovered but the application status should not be in a connected or configured state.
For alternate location restore of Oracle databases, to an alternate VMs that is a clone of the original VM, remove the fstab entries and restart the daemon, using the command:
# systemctl daemon-reload
Ensure that the database is prepared for snapshots. For details review the plug-in configuration notes in the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Cloud Install and Upgrade Guide.
To configure applications for point-in-time recovery
- Connect to the virtual machine that hosts the applications.
After the cloud assets are discovered, go to the Virtual Machines tab.
Select the virtual machine where the application is hosted. On the top right, click Manage credentials.
Enter the credentials. If the credentials for the VM are not configured, you must configure the credentials. See the Managing credentials chapter of the NetBackup Web UI Administrator Guide.
After the virtual machines are connected, the virtual machines state is updated to Connected.
- Select the virtual machine where the application is hosted. On the top right, click Configure application.
- After the process is complete, the application status is updated to configured.
- The applications are displayed under the Applications tab after the next discovery.
- Apply the protection plan. See the NetBackup Web UI Administrator's Guide.
To edit or update virtual machine credentials
- Go to the Virtual Machines tab.
- Select the virtual machines for which you want to update credentials. On the top right, click Manage credentials.
- Update the credentials.
To edit or update application configuration
- Go to the Applications tab.
- Select the application for which you want to update. On the top right, click Edit configuration
- Update the credentials and click Configure.
