When integrating SnapVault with an NDMP management application, which piece of information must be provided?

• A. Volume and Qtree
• B. Directory path
• C. Username and password
• D. SnapVault license

Answer: (C)

NDMP-based integration relies on authentication to allow the management application to access the storage system. The essential piece is the username and password for an NDMP-enabled account on the system, which lets the application log in and issue backup and restore commands to coordinate SnapVault data transfers. Without valid credentials, the management tool cannot establish a session or perform operations, no matter what data you plan to back up. Data targets like volume, Qtree, or directory path define what to back up, but they don’t grant access on their own. Licensing is a separate consideration and doesn’t fulfill the need for an NDMP login.
