NetWorker 19.7 Snapshot Management Integration Guide

Backup configuration methods

You can configure snapshot backups by using the NetWorker Management Console (NMC) interface. All the supported storage arrays support the following configuration methods:

• NetWorker Client Configuration Wizard—It is recommended that you use the wizard to create and modify the configurations for snapshots. The wizard accommodates the most common snapshot workflows by providing the correct sequence of steps and the verification of configuration dependencies.
• NMC Client Properties windows—Provides a user interface that you can use to manually create or modify configurations. For example, you can use the Client Properties Window to specify the uncommon directives or options that the wizard interface does not support, such as the variables listed in Application Information Variables.
  NOTE To create necessary lockbox entries, RecoverPoint and XtremIO require that you type username and password information. These workflows do not support manual client configuration.

The NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications Administration Guide and the NetWorker Module for SAP Administration Guide provide details on the supported application backup and recovery interfaces.
