+= About OADP Velero plug-ins
+
+You can configure two types of plug-ins when you install Velero:
+
+* Default cloud provider plug-ins
+* Custom plug-ins
+
+Both types of plug-in are optional, but most users configure at least one cloud provider plug-in.
+
+== Default Velero cloud provider plug-ins
+
+You can install any of the following default Velero cloud provider plug-ins when you configure the `oadp_v1alpha1_dpa.yaml` file during deployment:
+
+* `aws` (Amazon Web Services)
+* `gcp` (Google Cloud Platform)
+* `azure` (Microsoft Azure)
+* `openshift` (OpenShift Velero plug-in)
+* `csi` (Container Storage Interface)
+* `kubevirt` (KubeVirt)
+
+You specify the desired default plug-ins in the `oadp_v1alpha1_dpa.yaml` file during deployment.
+
+.Example file
+
+The following `.yaml` file installs the `openshift`, `aws`, `azure`, and `gcp` plug-ins:
+
+[source,yaml]
+----
+ apiVersion: oadp.openshift.io/v1alpha1
+ kind: DataProtectionApplication
+ metadata:
+   name: dpa-sample
+ spec:
+   configuration:
+     velero:
+       defaultPlugins:
+       - openshift
+       - aws
+       - azure
+       - gcp
+----
+
+== Custom Velero plug-ins
+
+You can install a custom Velero plug-in by specifying the plug-in `image` and `name` when you configure the `oadp_v1alpha1_dpa.yaml` file during deployment.
+
+You specify the desired custom plug-ins in the `oadp_v1alpha1_dpa.yaml` file during deployment.
+
+.Example file
+
+The following `.yaml` file installs the default `openshift`, `azure`, and `gcp` plug-ins and a custom plug-in that has the name `custom-plugin-example` and the image `quay.io/example-repo/custom-velero-plugin`:
