BigData plug-ins for NetBackup
Capacity licensing for BigData plug-ins is specific to the BigData policy type for the following plug-ins:
Hadoop plug-in for NetBackup
Nutanix plug-in for NetBackup
After the nbdeployutil utility runs using the capacity licensing option, the report displays the policy type in the Itemization sheet as follows:
BigData:hadoop
BigData:Nutanix-AHV
Using the BigData policy, the Hadoop (HDFS) data is backed up for the directory or the backup selection that is defined in the policy. The definition of protected data for the policy is the size of the defined directories that have the allow snapshot option enabled on an HDFS file system. To view the defined directory size, you can browse the file system using the Hadoop web console.
Administrators can also run the following HDFS command to verify the size that capacity licensing reports. The following HDFS commands are available by default:
hdfs dfs -ls -R -h /<name_of_the_directory>
The front-end data size that is reported for Nutanix Acropolis Hypervisor is the consumed storage size. You can verify the consumed storage size on the Nutanix AHV console by navigating to Storage column. The Storage column displays the consumed storage size as compared to the total allocated storage size.
