MSP Configuration for Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP

To enable Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP (FSxN) cloud file share backups, you must set up a discovery infrastructure that allows the system to identify and onboard workloads hosted on AWS. This setup is a one-time configuration as the same discovery nodes are used across all the tenants.

Procedure

1. Deploy EC2 instances on AWS to act as discovery nodes.

   The EC2 instances must have the Virtual Server package installed on them.

2. Configure the AWS Hosted Infrastructure Role ARN additional setting at the CommCell level. Verify that the value is the IAM Role ARN associated with the infrastructure EC2 instances.

3. Create a Server Group.

4. Add a workload resource pool associating it with the server group that you had created in the previous step.
