The prerequisites for using ObjectMAP are as follows:
OVNM Backend Components Should be Running
In order to get information from the backend and save it using the front-end, the OVNM backend components
must be up. Use the following command to verify the status of the OVNM backend components. Switch to the
volume.subvolume, where OVNM is installed before issuing the command.
