QuestionQ15

Storage Solutions

OceanProtect Appliance supports host file backup and NAS file backup. For host file backup, the data protection client must be installed on the host, and data must be backed up in LAN-based mode. For NAS file backup, the NDMP client must be installed on the host, and data must be backed up in LAN-free mode.

Explanation

Host file backup uses a data-protection agent on the protected host, while LAN-free operation is associated with SAN-connected client scenarios rather than being a universal LAN-based host-file requirement. NAS file backup does not require an NDMP client to be installed on a host; for most OceanProtect models, NAS backup uses a built-in ProtectAgent and needs no independent agent host. This makes the stated requirements incorrect.
