NDMP Backup process
NDMP (Network Data Management Protocol) is a protocol for direct communication between NAS and
backup devices. It bypasses the backup server, thus providing better speeds.
In order to use NDMP, click the
Enable NDMP data server
checkbox.
User:
Enter here the user authorized to access the NDMP server. The same user name and password
should be configured at the NDMP client software.
Password:
Enter here the password for the authorized user.
Interface:
Select the network interface to be used for the NDMP server.
The NDMP Data server can be used with the following software:
NDMPCopy
NDMPcopy transfers data between filers using the Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP). When
you use rsh to perform this transfer, the data flows from the source machine to the rsh host and then
again from the rsh host to the destination machine. This can put a double load on the network and
unnecessary load on the rsh host. With NDMPcopy, data is transferred directly from the source
machine to the destination machine, and the NDMP host and network are not burdened with the extra
load. The program can be downloaded from the official NDMP web site (http://www.ndmp.org).
NetBackup
NetBackup should be configured with following parameters:
at least one NDMP host should be configured,
at least one client of the /"NDMP, NDMP/" type should be added.
