For those doing NDMP backups with 6.1.1, an upgrade to 6.1.3 is worth
considering. According to the release notes for 6.1.3, there are fixes to
some problems with 6.1.1 and the way it handles NDMP stuff.

It is also worth noting that SnapImage is a bitch to install on Solaris.
SnapImage is a separately licensed product and it also requires exclusive
access to a raw disk device, but the documentation has details about that.
