NetBackup integration with Helios

In this release, NetBackup extends beyond domain‑level management by integrating natively with Helios, enabling centralized visibility, analytics, and operational control across multiple NetBackup environments.

Pre‑requisite Configuration for NetBackup Web UI Access - Authorization

Before accessing the NetBackup Web UI on the primary server, ensure that the user is authorized through Helios (NetBackup‑Alta).

  • Assign a NetBackup‑Alta canned role to the Helios user:

    Assign one of the following predefined roles based on the required access level:

    • NetBackup Admin: Provides administrator‑level access to the NetBackup Primary server.

    • NetBackup Viewer: Provides read‑only access to the NetBackup Primary server.

  • Create a NetBackup‑Alta custom role for Web UI access

    If more controlled access is required, create a custom role with Web UI permissions:.

    • Enable the NetBackup WebUI Access permission.

    • Select the scope (Primary servers) for which access is required.

    • Choose the appropriate canned or custom role for the selected NetBackup Primary server.

    • Create the custom role and assign it to the user.

    A custom role can inherit permissions from roles defined on the NetBackup Primary server and can be assigned to users as needed

You can now:
  • Register multiple NetBackup domains and manage them from a single cloud‑based console

  • Gain global visibility into jobs, policies, assets, connectivity, and versions

  • Monitor cyber resiliency using risk scores, anomaly detection, and malware insights

  • Perform policy, job, and recovery operations centrally, without switching dashboards

  • Use Copilot, a generative AI assistant, for guided troubleshooting, reporting queries, and operational insights

This integration requires minimal NetBackup‑side changes and uses outbound‑only secure communication, ensuring ease of deployment while enhancing operational efficiency.

For more information, see Helios documentation.
