Detailed Description

This cmdlet adds a new NetApp NDMP server to the Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure. Veeam Backup & Replication will use the specified credentials and settings to connect to the NDMP server.

The VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer object is a NetApp NDMP-enabled Logical Interface (LIF). To create this object, add the NetApp host using the Add-NetAppHost cmdlet with the EnableNDMPBackup parameter provided.

Parameters

Parameters
Parameter	Description	Type	Required	Position	Accept Pipeline Input
HostedServer	Specifies the NetApp NDMP LIF that you want to add to Veeam Backup & Replication as an NDMP server.	Accepts the VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer cmdlet.	True	Named	False
Credentials	Specifies the credentials. Veeam Backup & Replication will use these credentials to connect to the NetApp NDMP server.	Accepts the CCredentials object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCredentials cmdlet.	True	Named	False
GatewayMode	Specifies the gateway server selection mode. Veeam Backup & Replication will use this gateway server to connect to the NDMP server. You can specify the following modes: Automatic — Veeam Backup & Replication automatically selects the gateway server. SelectedGateway — specifies a particular gateway server explicitly. Use the SelectedGateway parameter to specify the server.	VBRGatewayMode	True	Named	False
SelectedGateway	For the SelectedGateway option in the GatewayMode parameter. Specifies the server that you want to use as the gateway server.	Accepts the CHost object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRServer cmdlet.	False	Named	False

Output Object

The cmdlet returns the VBRNetAppNDMPServer object that contains information about the NetApp NDMP server.

Examples

Example 1. Adding NetApp NDMP Server with Automatic Gateway Selection

This example shows how to add a NetApp NDMP LIF as an NDMP server. Veeam Backup & Replication will select the gateway server automatically.

$netappHost = Get-NetAppHost -Name "172.18.12.1"

$hostedServer = Get-VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer -Host $netappHost | Select-Object -First 1

$creds = Get-VBRCredentials -Name "ndmp-admin"

Add-VBRNetAppNDMPServer -HostedServer $hostedServer -Credentials $creds -GatewayMode Automatic

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-NetAppHost cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $netappHost variable.
Run the Get-VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer cmdlet. Set the $netappHost variable as the Host parameter value. Save the result to the $hostedServer variable.
Run the Get-VBRCredentials cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $creds variable.
Run the Add-VBRNetAppNDMPServer cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Set the $hostedServer variable as the HostedServer parameter value.
Set the $creds variable as the Credentials parameter value.
Set Automatic as the GatewayMode parameter value.

Example 2. Adding NetApp NDMP Server with Manual Gateway Selection

This example shows how to add a NetApp NDMP LIF as an NDMP server and choose a specific gateway server. Veeam Backup & Replication will use the specified server as the gateway server.

$netappHost = Get-NetAppHost -Name "172.18.12.1"

$hostedServer = Get-VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer -Host $netappHost | Select-Object -First 1

$creds = Get-VBRCredentials -Name "ndmp-admin"

$gateway = Get-VBRServer -Name "172.18.1.50"

Add-VBRNetAppNDMPServer -HostedServer $hostedServer -Credentials $creds -GatewayMode SelectedGateway -SelectedGateway $gateway

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-NetAppHost cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $netappHost variable.
Run the Get-VBRNetAppNDMPHostedServer cmdlet. Set the $netappHost variable as the Host parameter value. Save the result to the $hostedServer variable.
Run the Get-VBRCredentials cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $creds variable.
Run the Get-VBRServer cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $gateway variable.
Run the Add-VBRNetAppNDMPServer cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Set the $hostedServer variable as the HostedServer parameter value.
Set the $creds variable as the Credentials parameter value.
Set SelectedGateway as the GatewayMode parameter value.
Set the $gateway variable as the SelectedGateway parameter value.
