Can Datalock be introduced to a Working Environment with existing BlueXP CBS backups?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9.14.1
- BlueXP
- Cloud Backup Service (CBS)
- DataLock - Immutable Cloud Snapshots
Answer
- No, existing Backups in the Cloud can not be modified to be protected with DataLock Protection
- All existing Backups in CBS Cloud need to be deleted before and the Cloud Bucket Destination needs to be deleted
- The SnapMirror to Cloud Relationship needs to be deleted and released from the Source Cluster
- After all Cloud backups are deleted you can re-enable Cloud Backup by selecting a Protection policy that utilizes DataLock
