The save command still supports backing up remote files if you use the -L
option.

In our case, I setup a 2nd client definition for our HP-UX NetWorker server
and in the saveset list put the following:

/net/pltc402/fs_01_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_02_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_03_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_04_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_05_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_06_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_07_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_08_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_09_snap_nfs
/net/pltc402/fs_10_snap_nfs

These are the snapped Celerra File Systems exported via NFS.

In our case we use AutoFS to access these file systems.  I could have setup
a hard mount.

The NetWorker recover interface shows the files under /net.

This work OK for a small number of file systems.  We only use it for
Celerra, I do not think you would want to do all your backups using NFS to
avoid license fees.

We choose not to use NDMP because the savesets cannot be cloned and because
our Disaster Recovery vendor does not offer a Celerra at a reasonable cost.

        I thought Networker had dropped support to backup other server using
NFS, since you could backup all your servers without buying any client
license.
        I know that SMB backups work on windows, but you can't recover the
data because the recover gui won't show the mapped drive letters....

We have a Celerra.

EMC recommended backing it up via our Windows 2000 NetWorker Server by
connecting it to our SAN and using their HighRoad software to backup the BCV
volumes.

We had 2 major problems with this approach:

1) UNC based recovery is a big mess.

2) Backups took forever.

We ended up doing the following:

1) Exporting the BCVs via NFS instead of CIFS.

2) Backing up these BCVs using NFS on our HP-UX NetWorker server.

The 2 problems mentioned above are not a issue on the HP-UX side.

Anyone out there backing up an EMC Celerra/Clariion NAS?  Are you using
NDMP?  Or backing up the filesystem shares through a host mounting them?

Thanks.
