Create a Subclient to Backup Google Filestore Shares

A subclient is a logical entity that defines the Google Filestore Shares to be backed up.

Procedure

1. Open the CommCell Console.

2. Configure a Storage Device.

   You must install the MediaAgent to configure a storage device.

   • To configure a disk library, see Disk Libraries - Getting Started.

   • To configure a tape library, see Tape Libraries - Getting Started.

3. You can also create a network share client and then create a subclient under the Linux File System Agent of the network share client. Use the following steps to create a network share client:

   1. On the CommCell Browser, right-click Client Computers, and then click New Client.

      The Add New Client dialog box appears.

   2. Under File System, click NAS/Network Share.

   3. Select the Network Share check box, and then select the NFS check box.

   4. In the Client Name box, enter the non-NDMP network share client name.

   5. In the Host Name box, enter the fully qualified non-NDMP network share client name/IP.

   6. Click OK.

      A pseudo network share client is created on the CommCell Console.

   7. Create a subclient using the Linux File System Agent created under the network share client and make sure that the subclient content is a mounted path. Enter the same path where you mounted the Google Filestore on the linux computer.

      Note

      To add an access node for the network share subclient, select a Linux computer or a Google VM where the share can be accessed.

      For subclient configuration, see Linux File System Agent - Configuration.

4. Create a subclient for the local client computer and make sure that the subclient content is a mounted path. Enter the same path where you mounted the Google Filestore on the linux computer. For subclient configuration, see Linux File System Agent - Configuration.
