I'm trying to implement TSM backup of NetApp using NDMP.
Here's the environment:
NetApp ONTAP
TSM 5.2.2 on AIX machine
3575 tape library
The TSM Impl guide is a bit short on how to make a physical connection between NetApp and TSM/LTO. It describes making a direct connection to a drive in LTO, but we're trying to connect NetApp to TSM server instead. Since a NetApp tech said this was possible and we're not using fibre channel, we're trying to go this route.
Is it even possible to directly connect NetApp to TSM server instead of LTO drive?
I'm beginning to think this NetApp tech is blowing hot air to the management, since he can't even produce any documentation?
Any information regards to configuring NDMP operation will be appreciate.
Thanks in advance.
Joe
