First, you really don't want to do it this way. It's inefficient and will 
probably have major issues during restores. If you go this way, make sure you 
test thoroughly your restores. I assume you went this way to save the cost of 
the NDMP licenses? If so, given the headaches that you can have, I think the 
money would be better spent buying the licenses.

hi,
sorry i did not tell in detail...actually we are using sdlt tape drives of 320 
GB capacity And whereas in the case of netapp filer..what we have done is that 
now we have mapped the drives of filer in a windows server. So now the client 
is windows server. And when the backup is taken the maapped drives of the 
filers are also backed up....

Please can u suggest on the way how we can enable compression in this case..?
