Support for NetApp cDOT
NDMP Policy Type Indexing and Replication Director
support for NetApp Clustered Data ONTAP (cDOT)

Key BenefitsKey Features
In joint development activities with NetApp, NetBackup 7.7 introduces support for
the NetApp cDOT platform. This latest advancement helps customers protect their
modern storage infrastructure, helping customers mitigate business risk and
comply with regulatory and compliance requirements.
cDOT – NetBackup customers can
adopt cDOT and remain protected
NDMP and cDOT – NDMP backup
support of cDOT environments
Replication Director – Snapshot
management in cDOT environments
NDMP Indexing – Ability to use an
NDMP Snapshot and create the
catalog files
NetBackup 7.7 and NetApp cDOT
Introduction

NetBackup
Support for NetApp cDOT (NDMP 3-Way Example)
Support for NDMP cDOT Extensions
• Cluster aware backup (CAB) support is built on top of existing NDMP architecture
• NDMP CAB extension adds the notion of filer volume and tape device location
information (affinity) to low-level NDMP messages
• Works with all NDMP filers supporting NDMP CAB extension (OnTap 8.2+)
• 7.7 media servers are required for CAB-aware NDMP operations

Replication Director Support for NetApp cDOT
Replication Director and NetApp cDOT
• The backup selection in a NetBackup Policy refers to volume on the SVMs/vServer
• Replication occurs between SVMs (vServers)
• A target SVM can be on the same cluster as the source SVM or on different cluster
(inter-cluster replication)
• A peering of source and target SVMs is required upfront and done in OnCommand

NetBackup 7.7 Replication Director and cDOT

NetBackup 7.7 Replication Director and cDOT
• Replication Director relies on the OnCommand Unified Manager to keep
track of where the data resides on the Filers
• Requires the 2.0 version of the Plug-in
• Can use both 7-Series and cDOT on same Master but requires two plugins
• From a user perspective not much changes for Replication Director

NetBackup 7.7 NDMP Indexing
Indexing of NDMP Policy Type Snapshots
NDMP Indexing
• Problem with NDMP has always been there is no “file system” to obtain file
information and build the catalog
• After a NDMP Snapshot is created, an Indexing step in the SLP can now
obtain the file information directly from the filer
• No need to mount the snapshot
• Uses the NetApp SnapDiff functionality
• Requires credentials on the filers – add as a Storage Server
• Only works with NetApp at this time
• Does not specifically require RD, however it does require an SLP indexing
step after a snapshot

Enhanced Security and Auditing
FIPS Certified Cryptographic Module and user-
specific auditing without enabling NBAC

What is FIPS 140-2
• Well Designed
• Can protect its own keys
• Can run self tests
• Allows for Role Based Authentication
NetBackup 7.7 Security and Auditing
FIPS Certification
NetBackup 7.7 and FIPS
• NetBackup now has a FIPS-certified cryptographic module
What is Our FIPS Focus?
• Encryption
• Random number generation
• Hashing

Elimination of World-writeable Files and Folders
• A file or folder that any user can read or write to is call a
world-writeable file or folder
• World-writeable file and folder changes in NetBackup 7.7
– World-writeable files and folders are removed after upgrading
– Legacy logging library updated so log files do not require world-writeable permissions
– Changes to help ensure NetBackup does not create world-writeable files or folders
• Helps customers meet compliance goals
• Listing of identified files and folders for this release can be found in the
Symantec consolidated whitelist
Elimination of World-writeable Files and Folders

Enhanced Auditing
• Enhances existing Audit Trails functionality
• Cannot be using NBAC
• Returns user-specific information beyond “root/administrator”
• Available for Policy, Job and Storage unit operations at this time
• Based on use of the JAVA GUI and logins associated with it
