This section provides an explanation of the ServerProtect for NetApp organizational flow in 7-Mode.
ServerProtect for NetApp
uses an agent to communicate with the NetApp 7-Mode Device via remote procedure calls
(RPCs).
This agent performs the following functions:
-
Registers the Normal Server with the NetApp 7-Mode Device as a "Scan Server." This informs the NetApp 7-Mode Device of the availability and location of a Scan Server
-
Watches for NetApp 7-Mode Device file-scanning requests
-
Returns scan results to the NetApp 7-Mode Device
-
Answers any queries from the NetApp 7-Mode Device
-
Informs the NetApp 7-Mode Device of any pattern file or scan engine updates
-
Communicates with the NetApp 7-Mode Device to check the connection between the Scan Server and the NetApp 7-Mode Device
The organization flow in Cluster-Mode is similar to that in 7-Mode. The only difference
is
that ServerProtect for
NetApp communicates with the NetApp Cluster AV Connector instead of the NetApp 7-Mode
Device.
