NetBackup™ Deployment Guide for Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Services (EKS) Cluster

To install the docker images

1. Download netbackup-flexsnap-$(SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION).tar.gz from the Veritas site.
2. Load the docker images to your docker storage.

   docker load -i netbackup-flexsnap-$(SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION).tar.gz

3. Tag the images.

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-fluentd:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-fluentd:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-datamover:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-datamover:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-nginx:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-nginx:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-mongodb:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-mongodb:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-core:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-core:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-deploy:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-deploy:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-certauth:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-certauth:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker tag veritas/flexsnap-rabbitmq:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION} ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-rabbitmq:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   Note:

   Ensure that you use the same tag as that of Snapshot Manager image version. Custom tag cannot be used.

4. Push the images.

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-certauth:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-rabbitmq:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-fluentd:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-datamover:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-nginx:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-mongodb:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-core:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

   $ docker push ${REGISTRY}/veritas/flexsnap-deploy:${SNAPSHOT_MANAGER_VERSION}

Configure Snapshot Manager

1. Use existing dedicated namespace for Snapshot Manager to run:

   kubectl create ns <sample-namespace>

2. Create a Snapshot Manager Secret. The Secret is used in CR.

   kubectl create secret generic cp-creds --from-literal=username='admin' --from-literal=password='Cloudpoint@123' -n $ENVIRONMENT_NAMESPACE

   See Deploying NetBackup and Snapshot Manager manually.

3. Edit the cpServer CR section of the environment.yaml file in the text editor.

   See Configuring the environment.yaml file.

4. Apply the CR file to the EKS cluster:

   kubectl apply -f <sample-cr-yaml>

5. Monitor the configuration process:

   kubectl get all -n <namespace> -o wide

6. Verify the status by running the following command:

   kubectl get cpservers -n <sample-namespace>
