Ops Manager configuration for third‑party backup

To use NetBackup as a third‑party backup solution, MongoDB Ops Manager must be configured to allow third‑party managed backups.

The following configuration steps are required in Ops Manager:

  • Enable the third‑party backup feature using the supported feature flag.

  • Configure a directory that Ops Manager agents can use to store transaction log (TLOG) data.

  • Ensure that the MongoDB agents running on all cluster nodes have read and write access to this directory and that sufficient disk space is available.
