Set the NDMP Service to Storage Virtual Machine (SVM)-scoped mode on the filer: Verify that the NDMP service is set to SVM-scoped mode. In Data ONTAP 8.1 and earlier versions, you must explicitly disable the node‑scoped mode for NDMP.
Configure an NDMP service user account: In the SVM-scoped NDMP mode, you must use NDMP Service user account to access a storage system to perform tape backup and restore operations. You must also generate a password for the user account:
Add the Logical Interface (LIF) to the plug-in: To add the NDMP Client to the plug-in, use the IP address of the Logical Interface (LIF) and the NDMP service user account.
You can use the command network interface show to obtain information about LIFs. The availability of volumes and tape devices depend on the LIF type that you use.

Configure NDMP root password on cluster nodes: In the node-scoped NDMP mode, you must use an NDMP-specific user account to access a storage system to perform tape backup and restore operations. User authentication must be configured on each node. The default user ID is root. Ensure that you change the default NDMP password associated with the root user account.

To use the NDMP root user account for accessing the filer, set a valid password for this account. Password cannot be left blank for this user account. To use a non-root user, verify that the account has necessary privileges to perform NDMP backups and restores.
