NetBackup™ for MongoDB Ops Manager Administrator's Guide

Platform and deployment prerequisites

Before integrating NetBackup with MongoDB Ops Manager, ensure that the environment meets the following requirements:

  • MongoDB Ops Manager version 8.0.21 or later is installed in the project that will use third‑party backup.

  • MongoDB deployments must use the Enterprise edition.

  • The Feature Compatibility Version (FCV) of the MongoDB deployment must be 4.2 or later.

  • System clocks across all hosts should be synchronized (for example, using NTP) to ensure accurate timestamps and point‑in‑time recovery behavior.

  • The cluster to be protected must be the enterprise version.

  • The cluster to be protected must be either a replica set or a sharded cluster.

These prerequisites help ensure stable operation and prevent issues during backup and recovery workflows.
