Has anyone used this feature. I just saw it as part of the 9.19.1GA release notes..
If i have a NetApp One license do you need to buy new keys ?
Does it accept generic S3 endpoints . eg Wasabi ?
Can you setup Vault policies ?

you need a backup software to use this feature. With SystemManager you can only backup to ONTAP S3 or StorageGRID. With NetApp Console Backup and Recovery, you can backup to other providers. Wasabi reportedly also works (as S3 compatible storage)
technically you can of course also set it up via CLI but that's neither documented nor supported 🙂

Yep , Wasabi is supported with B&R:
"Wasabi is the only qualified S3-compatible object storage provider at this time. Other S3-compatible providers have not been validated."
"Tested and validated with Wasabi object storage; customers have also reported successful deployments with MinIO and IBM Cloud Object Storage"
If you're using System Manager as the orchestrator for SnapMirror Cloud then you do need to "buy new keys" but you need to install them (for no charge). Also the additional Cloud API key. But it's mentioned here at the top section: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/data-protection/cloud-backup-with-snapmirror-task.html
With Vault policies you mean if you can keep more backups in the destination than on your source? Yes, that's possible of course.

I have it running upagainst a StorageGrid... I think it has been there for awhile... 9.16.1 at least (just hidden a bit..) but works fine... and you can have vault policies like it's just another snapmirror/vault setup... As I remember, it was a bit of a "faf" to setup back then, requesting licenses etc. from NetApp 🙂 I guess it's becomming more "main stream" in 9.19... (this system is now on 9.17.1, but it was setup on 9.16.1)...
