[Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0 [NC]

Yes, it is required.
I am using SSO and ndmp and this option was set on all my NetApp filers in 
order for SSO to work.

While I agree with the last poster that it's probably not documented, I do 
believe it's required.  NetApp was required to support scsi reserve/release 
before this feature would work.  I'm guessing from your question that they made 
this an optional feature on that NetApp.  If you don't turn this on, bad things 
could happen.  (although this is just an educated guess.)

Gilles,

I am not 100% sure of this, I believe "tape.reservations scsi" is required. I 
would suggest that, since this is an option in the NetApp OS not a NetBackup 
option, that you check NetApp's support to see if that option is needed for 
drive sharing.

Thank you,

Thanks,

Do we need to setup the NetApp option   "tape.reservations scsi" on the NetApp 
filers or is it not necessary ??

Gilles.

Justin,

The answer to your questions is yes, if you were at 7.1.1 or 7.2.1 or higher of 
the ONTap OS for all the NetApp filers involved you could do SSO with the 
Master, Media, and NDMP devices having any number of them sharing the same 
drives.

Thank you,
