Configure NetBackup Kubernetes datamover

You need to configure datamover for the NetBackup Kubernetes workload. Download the correct version of the datamover image: veritasnetbackup-datamover-10.0-0070.tar for your release version, from the download center. See https://www.veritas.com/content/support

Note:

In NetBackup Kubernetes 10.0 release, datamover supports only automatic mode for DTE client.

For more details, See Configure settings for NetBackup snapshot operation.

To configure datamover

  1. To push the datamover image to docker image registry, run the command:

    docker login -u <user name> <repo-name>

  2. Enter the password upon prompt. Skip this step if you are already logged in
  3. Run docker load -i <name of the datamover image file>
  4. Run docker tag <datamover image name:tag of the loaded datamover image> <repo-name/image-name:tag-name>
  5. docker push <repo-name/image-name:tag-name>
  6. Ensure that the configmap with primary server name, have image value set to <repo-name/image-name:tag-name> pushed in step no 4.

    For more details on configmap, See Prerequisites for backup from snapshot and restore from backup operations.
