Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP backups of CIFS shares on Netapp Filers

It came in with v7.2 of Ontap, IIRC.  We're good on that (finally!).

Yep, NDMP will grab ACLs, but you may want to double-confirm the
compatibility of SSO + Netapp NDMP. For some reason I remember it used
to be not possible until a new Netapp revision came out.

What version of Data Ontap?

The ndmp backups of netapp filers back up the acls on NTFS and mixed
volumes.

Long title, huh?

I know I could dig into the docs but you guys are usually faster.

Right now I backup our one Netapp CIFS as a unix NFS mount.  I miss all
the ACL's but that's not a big problem with this share since it's pretty
much all owned by the same group.  Discussion in a meeting today may
lead to a lot more CIFS shares but they're very much cross-owned and the
Windows ACLs are about to become important.

I could build a windows media server and backup the shares that way -
all the nice ACL's come along for the ride.  However, I've gone years
now without becoming a windows admin and I like it that way.  I'd rather
look at NDMP direct to tape (SSO share) of the volume containing the
share.

Do any of you know if the NDMP backup will grab all the ACL information
so the winders users stay happy?
