TSM currently does not support NDMP backup/recovery of EMC Clariion.  The
solution described in the referenced white paper does not involve use of
NDMP.  Instead, this solution involves using a TSM client to access files
on the Clariion, which are backed up LAN-free to volumes in the TSM stoage
hierarchy.  In contrast to TSM's NDMP support, this method provides
file-level backups, requires data transfer over a SAN, and may not
necessarily preserve file attributes.

Subject: Re: NAS backup

Dave, Thanks for your information. I was curious about EMC NAS products
and found what they say about their EMC Clariion FC4700 backup support
with TSM. Could you help me to understand what EMC says about backup or
shouldn't I trust them at all? Thanks again.
