Description

Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) is an extension of the Nutanix Cloud Platform and enables organizations to run the Nutanix Cloud Platform software on AWS. It replicates the core Nutanix HCI software used on on-premises in a public cloud hyperscaler environment, delivering the same virtualized, software-defined benefits in private and public clouds.

For more information on NC2 on AWS, refer to the Nutanix documentation.

In the NC2 environment, virtual machines can be protected using NetBackup 10.4 and later versions. Once Nutanix clusters and Prism Central are deployed in the NC2 environment, they can be configured within the NetBackup Web UI, similar to on-premises Nutanix clusters. After successfully configuring the cluster in NetBackup, the virtual machines will be discovered. Subsequently, these virtual machines can be protected using the protection plan designed for AHV workloads.


Note: NetBackup protects virtual machines in the NC2 environment similarly to those in on-prem Nutanix clusters. For more details on protecting Nutanix on-premises virtual machines with NetBackup, refer to the Managing AHV clusters chapter in NetBackup™ Web UI Nutanix AHV Administrator's Guide.
