CA DataMinder supports NetApp SnapLock volumes when NetApp is running Data ONTAP version 7.0 or later. Data ONTAP is a unified storage software platform that dramatically simplifies data management, while SnapLock volumes provide high performance and high security data permanence. Integration with CA DataMinder is simple to set up, and enabled through a single machine policy setting.
Only events captured after integration has been enabled will have their retention periods set on the NetApp SnapLock volume. Events captured and replicated to the CMS before SnapLock integration has been set up will not. For this reason, we recommend that you set up SnapLock integration as soon as possible after deploying CA DataMinder.
SnapLock integration is configured through a single policy setting on the CMS. This setting determines the data file storage location. When a CA DataMinder event is captured or imported, it is replicated to the CMS. The CMS stores an event record in its database and writes a blob file to the specified SnapLock volume. In addition, the file’s ‘Last Accessed’ date is set to the event’s expiry date (that is, when the event’s minimum retention period expires and the event becomes eligible for purging).
