To back up your data, run a backup operation from the File System agent under the NAS client.
Before You Begin
-
If the subclient contents overlap, then the backup of each share is done individually.
-
For C-Mode subclients with wild card content, if the source for the backup copy is a vault copy or a mirror copy, then verify that the vault or mirror volume is mounted. For C-Mode NFS subclients, the volume must also be associated to the export-policy that have rules to allow access to all the IntelliSnap proxy computers or access nodes.
-
For the NetApp storage array, if you want to back up an auto-mount format NFS export, then on the storage array, ensure that the following conditions are met:
-
The file system or the volume permits access to the hosts. Without the proper access rights, the auto-mount operation fails.
-
For NetApp C-Mode systems, when NFS hosts access a file or a folder on a volume with NTFS security style, there must be a name mapping configured on file server for mount operations and file access.
-
Procedure
-
From the CommCell Browser, expand Client Computers > NAS client > file system agent > backup set.
-
Right-click subclient, and then click Backup.
The Backup Options for Subclient dialog box appears.
-
In the Select Backup Type area, click Full.
-
In the Job Initiation area, click Immediate, and then click OK.
Result
After you create a backup copy either inline, or offline, the last snapshot backup job which was backup copied is retained in addition to the regular retention.
