Complete a few steps to back up the applications data from ONTAP to Google Cloud Platform.

Steps

  1. In BlueXP UI, click Protection > Backup and recovery > Applications.

  2. Click icon to select the action corresponding to the application and click Activate Backup.

  3. In the Assign Policy page, select the policy and click Next.

  4. Add the working environment.

    Configure the cluster management LIF that you want BlueXP to discover. After adding the working environment for one of the applications, it can be reused for all the other applications residing on the same ONTAP cluster.

    1. Select the SVM and click Add Working Environment.

    2. In the Add Working Environment wizard:

      1. Specify the IP address of the cluster management LIF.

      2. Specify the credentials of the ONTAP cluster user.

        BlueXP backup and recovery for applications only support cluster admin.

    3. Click Add Working Environment.

  5. Select Google Cloud Platform as the cloud provider.

    1. Select the Google Cloud Project where you want the Google Cloud Storage bucket to be created for backups.

    2. In the Google Cloud Access Key field, specify the key.

    3. In the Google Cloud Secret Key field, specify the password.

    4. Select the region where you want to create the backups.

    5. Specify the IP space.

    6. Select the archival tier.

      It is recommended to set the archival tier because this is an one time activity and you will not be allowed to set it up later.

  6. Review the details and click Activate Backup.
