NetBackup™ Deployment Guide for Kubernetes Clusters

Migrating cpServer controlPlane node

This section describes the steps for cpServer controlPlane node migration.

Note:

It is recommended to use the same node pool for primary and cpServer controlPlane.

Steps for cpServer controlPlane node migration

  1. Create new nbunewpool node pool with required data.
  2. Set the required permissions and assign the role.
    • For AKS: For plugin configuration, the kubernetes cluster requires permissions to be assigned to the System Managed Identity as follows:

      • Obtain the name of the infrastructure resource group for the kubernetes cluster.

      • Enable the System Managed Identity on the identified nodepool (nbunewpool).

      • Assign the role having the Snapshot Manager permission.

    • For EKS: For plugin configuration, the kubernetes cluster requires permissions to be assigned to IAM of primary nodepool. The IAM role must be assigned during the node pool creation as follows:

      • Assign the appropriate IAM role to the nbunewpool nodepool.

  3. Navigate to the specific cpServer > nodeSelecter > controlPlane and change the labelKey and labelValue to match the label values of nbunewpool.
