We recently brought in a Network Appliance, so we are new to this. Since you
can't install any software on the Network Appliance, a direct TSM backup is
out of the question. Our intention is to run a TSM command schedule from
another server to perform the TSM backup.

The TSM command schedule command will map a network drive, invoke DSMC
incremental on the newly mapped network drive and then remove the drive
mapping. At least, in theory it should work. Any other thoughts?
