Lyve Cloud with CloudBoost

In this section, you will learn how to configure CloudBoost and Dell Networker to enable backups to Lyve Cloud.

Login to the CloudBoost Management Console as an administrator. You can access the CloudBoost appliance using CLI or GUI.

  • On-Prem CloudBoost Management console: HTTPS://<CLOUDBOOST IP ADDRESS>:7443
  • CLI: ssh admin@<CLOUDBOOST IP ADDRESS>

Configuring CloudBoost client network

To configure network settings for the CloudBoost appliance:

  1. Connect to the CloudBoost CLI.
  2. Authenticate with the default password, which is password.
  3. Set the password for the new administrator.
  4. Type the status command to see the current network configuration of the appliance.

  1. If the IP address is dynamically assigned, then skip to step 8. To statically set the IP address and netmask, type the command:
net config eth0 XX.X.XX.XXX netmask 0.0.0.0
 Note—You must type the following command for each network listed in the status command output if you have multiple networks.

net config eth0 XX.X.XX.XXX netmask 0.0.0.0

  1. Type the command to add the gateway manually.
route add IP address netmask netmask address gw gateway address


For example, route add 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw xx.x.xx.x.

 Note—You must add multiple routes to the gateways if you have multiple networks.

  1. Type the command to set DNS manually.
dns set primary <primary IP address>

dns set secondary <secondary IP address>

dns set tertiary &lt;tertiary IP address&gt;


For example, to set DNS manually:

DNS set primary 10.5.96.91

DNS set secondary 10.5.96.92

DNS set tertiary 10.5.96.93

  1. Type the following command to set the fully qualified domain name:
fqdn servername.yourcompanydomain


Consider the following:

  • Custom FQDN_name names are not supported.
  • The FQDN_name must be lowercase and not include the underscore character (_).

Sample command to set the fully qualified domain name: FQDN: cloudboostqa.int.us-west-1-dev.lyvecloud.seagate.com

 Note—You must set the FQDN to access the On-Prem CloudBoost Management Console.

  1. Type the following command to verify the networking setup and check the appliance's status:
status

  1. After verifying the system's basic networking settings, configure CloudBoost using the On-Prem CloudBoost Management Console.

Cloud profiles

Before you configure a CloudBoost appliance in the On-Prem CloudBoost Management Console, create a cloud profile for the storage.

 Note—For creating a cloud profile, please use a Service Account with All Operations (full access) that enables cloud boost to create bucket tenants. Obtain the necessary credentials for the cloud provider.
  1. Use a web browser and sign in to the On-Prem CloudBoost Management Console as an administrator.

Type the On-Prem CloudBoost Management Console address in the following format:

https: //<FQDN of the cloud appliance>:7443
 Note—The username to access the console is admin. Use the password you updated during the deployment of CloudBoost.
  1. On the left menu, select Cloud Profile.
  2. Select Edit to revise the default cloud profile and enter the following:
  • Display Name: View the default display name. This is a non-editable field.
  • Cloud Storage Provider: View the default Cloud Storage Provider.
  • Endpoint: Enter your Lyve Cloud bucket URL.
  • Access Key ID: Enter your Lyve Cloud bucket access key ID.
  • Secret Access Key: Enter your Lyve Cloud bucket secret access key.
  1. Select Save.
