Unitrends Backup MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol server exposing the Unitrends Backup API to Claude and other MCP clients.
What it does
Surface backup posture from your Unitrends appliances (or MSP Console) directly to AI assistants — list appliances and protected assets, monitor running and historical backup jobs, browse recovery points, queue restores and replication, and review open alarms and RPO compliance.
- Interactive Appliance Card (MCP Apps):
