We are also looking to backup the Centera.

EMC's first response is buy another Centera and replicate!

We had people visit from Diversified Data, Inc.
They created  software that sits on a NT/W2K box that will query the
Centera for new data and pull the data across to that system.
You can then use TSM to backup that system.

I guess the software is still in Beta.
They admitted that their solution was only temporary until Backup companies
(TSM, Legato, etc...) came out with agents.

Here is their website:

Let me know if you find a good solution!

BlankHas anyone used TSM(any version) w/EMC Centera?  If so, how do you get
at the data...via server/client attached to Centera?
