Enabling SVM-scoped NDMP on the cluster

You can configure SVM-scoped NDMP on the cluster by enabling SVM-scoped NDMP mode and NDMP service on the cluster (admin SVM).

1. Enable SVM-scoped NDMP mode by using the system services ndmp command with the node-scope-mode parameter.

   Example

   cluster1::> system services ndmp node-scope-mode off
   NDMP node-scope-mode is disabled.
   
2. Enable NDMP service on the admin SVM by using the vserver services ndmp on command.

   Example

   cluster1::> vserver services ndmp on -vserver cluster1
   
   The authentication type is set to challenge by default and plaintext authentication is disabled.

   Note

   For secure communication, you should keep plaintext authentication disabled.
3. Verify that NDMP service is enabled by using the vserver services ndmp show command.

   Example

   cluster1::> vserver services ndmp show
   
   Vserver       Enabled   Authentication type
   ------------- --------- -------------------
   cluster1      true      challenge
   vs1           false     challenge
