To define a data mover, first complete the following fields and then click Finish, or click Cancel to end this task.
Enter the node name for the NAS file server that is associated with this data mover.
Enter either the numerical IP address or the domain name for the NAS file
server.
Examples:
Enter the TCP/IP port number for Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) sessions with the NAS file server. The default port number is 10000.
Enter the name for a user who is authorized to initiate an NDMP session with the NAS file server. For example, enter the administrative ID for a Network Appliance file server.
Enter the password for the NAS user.
The format in which data will be stored. The data format used can determine which parameters are available and the corresponding options available for those parameters.
Netappdump | Specifies the data is in a NetApp dump format. Use this
data format for storing backups created using NDMP for a Network
Appliance network-attached storage
device.
Note: The server will not perform storage pool backup, migration, reclamation, MOVE DATA, and AUDIT VOLUME for a storage pool using a NETAPPDUMP data format. |
Celerradump | Specifies the data is in a Celerra dump format. Use this
data format for backup and restore of EMC Celerra file-servers via
NDMP.
Note: The server will not perform storage pool backup, migration, reclamation, MOVE DATA, and AUDIT VOLUME for a storage pool using CELERRADUMP data format. |
NDMPdump | Specifies the data is in a NAS vendor-specific backup
format. This data format should be specified for
file system images that have been backed up from a NAS file server
other than a Network Appliance or EMC Celerra file server.
Note: The server will not perform storage pool backup, migration, reclamation, MOVE DATA, and AUDIT VOLUME for a storage pool using NDMPDUMP data format. |
Select whether the data mover is available for use. The default is Yes.
Yes | The data mover is available for use. |
No | The data mover is not available for use. |
Attention: If a library is controlled by using a path from a data mover to the library and the data mover is offline, the server will not be able to access the library. If the server is halted and restarted while the data mover is offline, the library will not be initialized.
