  4. Valid NetBackup license key.
  5. NetBackup Usage Insights Customer Registration key for your account
  6. Meet system and instance requirements. Refer to the compatibility lists.

@nrlingam have you been successfull at the end with the AWS deployment ? I am struggling with IAM roles/permission, so that the snapshot manager is able to discover assets in its own account as well as cross account. If yes...it might like to have a chat :)
