Examples

Example 1. Adding NDMP Server with Automatic Gateway Selection

This example shows how to add an NDMP server to the backup infrastructure. Veeam Backup & Replication will select the gateway server automatically.

$creds = Add-VBRCredentials -User "New NDMP" -Password "Password"

Add-VBRNDMPServer -Name "NetApp.tech.local" -Credentials $creds -GatewayMode Automatic -Port 10000

Perform the following steps:

Run the Add-VBRCredentials cmdlet. Specify the User and the Password parameters value. Save the result to the $creds variable.
Run the Add-VBRNDMPServer cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Specify the Name parameter value.
Set the $creds variable as the Credentials parameter value.
Set the Automatic option for the GatewayMode parameter.
Specify the Port parameter value.

Example 2. Adding NDMP Server with Manual Gateway Selection

This example shows how to add an NDMP server to the backup infrastructure. Veeam Backup & Replication will use selected server as the gateway server.

$creds = Add-VBRCredentials -User "New NDMP" -Password "Password"

$gateway = Get-VBRServer -Name "Gateway server"

Add-VBRNDMPServer -Name "NDMPv4 Storage" -Port 1000 -Credentials $creds -GatewayMode SelectedGateway -SelectedGateway $gateway

Perform the following steps:

Run the Add-VBRCredentials cmdlet. Specify the User and the Password parameters value. Save the result to the $creds variable.
Run the Get-VBRServer cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter. Save the result to the $gateway variable.
Run the Add-VBRNDMPServer cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Specify the Name parameter value.
Specify the Port parameter value.

Set the $creds variable as the Credentials parameter value.
Set the SelectedGateway option for the GatewayMode parameter.
Set the $gateway variable as the SelectedGateway parameter value.
