I heared 6.1.2.1 does not support NDMP. So you can try only 6.1.3.

Hello ALL, Thanks for your help!

I am about to upgrade a client from 5.5.2 to 6.1.x. The client just got an
nSeries and they want to implement NDMP.  Two questions arise form this
thread.

1. Which 6.1.x version should I upgrade to?
2. What is the nature of the NDMP/TOC performance problems in 6.1.x?

Thanks Again!

Regards,

Nicholas
