NetWorker 19.7 Snapshot Management Integration Guide

PDF

Migrating RecoverPoint appliances

Before the upgrade to NetWorker Snapshot Management (NSM), ensure that the operating system, versions, and configuration support NSM. Components of the NSM network provides details.

You must create a NetWorker Client resource by using the NMC Client Configuration Wizard. RecoverPoint appliances do not support a nonwizard configuration and existing RecoverPoint Client resources will not work after the upgrade to NSM.

You must configure RecoverPoint credentials in the NetWorker server lockbox because the nsr_rp_access_config utility no longer exists, and you cannot use a local credential file.

  1. Ensure that you have available the credentials for username and password for the RecoverPoint appliances that participate in snapshot backups.
  2. Open an NMC session to the NetWorker server, and then run the Client Configuration Wizard.
  3. Create a Client resource for the application host by selecting NSM and the RecoverPoint option.
  4. Compare the new resource and old resource, and then add the required attributes from the old configuration to the new one.
  5. On the Specify the RecoverPoint replication type and Storage Array Options page, add the RecoverPoint username and password to the lockbox on the NetWorker server.
  6. After you finish with the wizard, delete the old configuration.
