How do I connect to NDMP?

At the NDMP Server step of the wizard, enter the name of the NDMP server and connection details. In the NDMP server name and port field, enter the name or the IP address of the NDMP server you want to connect and the port for the connection. Check your NAS device settings for details.

How does NDMP backup work?

NDMP, or Network Data Management Protocol, is a protocol meant to transport data between network attached storage (NAS) devices and backup devices. This removes the need for transporting the data through the backup server itself, thus enhancing speed and removing load from the backup server.

What is NDMP server?

Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) is an open protocol to control data backup and recovery communications between primary and secondary storage in a heterogeneous network environment. Simply put, the protocol is meant for network-based backup for network-attached storage (NAS).

What is 2 way NDMP backup?

A two-way NDMP model is by definition a direct-attached backup topology, as the NDMP host (effectively now a backup client) has the backup storage connected directly to it. It is a variant of a two-tier backup architecture.

How does NetApp NDMP work?

The Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) developed by NetApp is used for controlling backup services to network-attached storage (NAS) devices. NDMP allows data to be transferred between storage devices and backup targets and reduces the load on the backup server.

What is NDMP filer?

NDMP Filers (NAS): A standard backup interface for NAS devices exists in the form of the network data management protocol (NDMP), which is a backup standard for NAS devices that do not support installation of a backup agent.

What is NDMP storage?

NDMP is an open standard protocol for network-based backup for network- attached storage. The protocol allows backup and network-attached file server vendors to focus investment on functionality instead of excessive porting, and gives users an unprecedented level of choice and interoperability.

Why was the NDMP formed?

NDMP separates the control path from the data path, which reduces the demand on network resources and allows you to implement local backups and leverage remote systems for disaster recovery. NDMP also creates a standard way for file servers in heterogeneous networks to communicate with network-attached tape devices.

What is 3 way Ndmp?

The NDMP three-way backup is also known as the remote NDMP backup. During a three-way NDMP backup operation, a data management application (DMA) on a backup server instructs the cluster to start backing up data to a tape media server that is either attached to the LAN or directly attached to the DMA.

What is NDMP backup in NetWorker?

NetWorker software uses Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) functionality to enable access to storage in a heterogeneous network environment. NDMP uses TCP/IP to control the movement of the data and specifies various device drivers to store the data on devices.

What is Ndmp port number?

Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) runs on TCP port 10000 and is used primarily for backup of network-attached storage (NAS) devices, such as storage systems.

Does Veeam support NDMP?

Support of NDMP servers backup to tape is included in the Veeam Universal License. When using a legacy socket-based license, the Enterprise Plus edition of Veeam Backup & Replication is required.
