Workaround

If the backup application cannot connect to a NAS

appliance:

1. Log in to the NAS Manager or open a remote

terminal to the appliance.

2. On the NAS Manager, go to Data Protection →

NDMP → NDMP Configuration page. In NAS CLI, go

to Data Protection NDMP Configuration menu.

3. Verify that NDMP is enabled. If NDMP is enabled, go

to step 5.

4. On the NAS Manager, the Enabled check box must

be checked.

5. In the NAS CLI, type view and ensure that State is

set to Enabled.

6. If NDMP is not enabled, enable it.
7. Verify that backup application IP address is

configured in NDMP.

8. On the NAS Manager, the DMA server list must

include the IP address of the backup application.

9. In the NAS CLI, type view and ensure that the DMA

Servers list includes the IP address of the DMA

application trying to access the NAS appliance.

If the backup appliance can connect to a NAS appliance

but cannot log in, use backup_user as the user name for

the NDMP client, while setting up the NDMP backup/

restore in your backup application. The default password

for NDMP client is Stor@ge!
To change the password:

1. Log in to the NAS Manager or open remote terminal

to the appliance.

2. In the NAS Manager, go to Data Protection →

NDMP → NDMP Configuration page. In NAS CLI, go

to Data Protection → NDMP → Configuration menu.

3. In the NAS Manager, click Change Password. In the

NAS CLI, run the data-protection ndmp

configuration set-Password

<new_password> command.

If the backup application can log into the NAS appliance,

but if no volumes are available for backup, verify that the

NAS appliance has NAS volumes created on it.
