Hi all --
I have been asked by management to research the pluses and minuses of NDMP backups. So, I figured I would ask you guys since your doing it already. Our environment will consist of TSM on an SUSE Linux box and NDMP connections to either a NetApp NAS head or an EMC Celera NAS head.
In your responses, I am looking for your views on the good, bad and the ugly of NDMP backups, and any suggestions on where the break points are for data volume (IE at 5TB the cost > benefit, but at 50Tb NDMP Rocks, etc).
Since I have to present this to management any relevant citation sources are welcome along with your comments. I look forward to hearing your input,
Andy.
