Good Afternoon David,

If I understand your question, the answer is no.

The netapp lun which is mounted on the client as a block device and not a remote filesystem, is a file in the wafl filesystem on the netapp. Using ndmp to backup the netapp, netbackup saves a file. So it can only restore a file.

I would think that they could use code on the netapp to parse the file(lun), but while the netapp is a unix server, it is not a full service unix server. At least that is the netapp party line.

Can Netbackup 6.0 restore a single file from a lun??

I have able to backup and restore an entire lun successfully but I am now wondering if Netbackup and parse the lun for a single file and restore that file.

thnaks
