Hello,       I'm posting this on behalf of customer for NetBackup       what we do in nutshell is    1.we establish replication relationship between source and target volume    2.call ontap.SnpamirrorTransfer() to enable replication ,we wait util we see transfer state is successful    3.call  ontap.snapshot() on target volume and save attributes of snapshot residing on target volume   what we have observed is if  storage efficiency is enabled  for target volume  - after replication is successful , storage efficiency runs and updates uuid of already existing snapshot on target volume - Hence we have invalid uuid of snapshot as we have already picked up snapshot attributes mentioned at steps 3 - Due to this invalid uuid we fail to perform different operations like export/deport/delete operation for snapshot residing on target volume   How can we retrieve valid attributes of snapshot if storage efficiency is enabled on target volume using python SDK   we already have case #2010285475 opened ,respective support has asked to post query in this forum and get solution for this         ...

I am trying to resolve the ActiveIQ Suggestion “The node is not configured to save configuration backups to a remote location.” We don’t really understand why POST is the defaulted method for HTTPS and how we cannot change it to PUT as is explained by the KB article the ActiveIQ Suggestion links us to: The web server to which you are uploading the configuration backup file must have PUT operations enabled for HTTP and POST operations enabled for HTTPS. For more information, see your web server's documentation. The problem we are facing is that Artifactory does not support POST for HTTPS and this is where we are attempting to have our backups land. Artifactory returns a 405 when we attempt to use POST.  ::*> system configuration backup upload -node storage-cold-01 -backup storage-cold.8hour.2025-03-20.02_15_00.7z -destination <artifactory link> -rest-method POST Enter the username: <username> Enter the password: Uploading the configuration backup file. Error: command failed: Upload operation of configuration backup file exited with error: Failed to upload configuration backup file "/mroot/etc/backups/config/storage-cold.8hour.2025-03-20.02_15_00.7z" to <artifactory link>. Error: HTTP response code said error : The requested URL returned error: 405. ::*> We are able to use ‘system configuration backup upload’ with ‘-rest-method PUT’. We notice there is no way to adjust the REST method that the scheduled backup uses though.    I opened a technical support case regarding this and have been told that I must ask about this in here.    ...
