TSM NDMP support DOES only work with Network Appliance filers as of
today.  I would recommend running TSM 5.1.1.x if you are doing NDMP
based backups.

Subject: NDMP support in TSM

I've been looking through the TSM documentation on NDMP support in TSM.
>>From what I can see, it looks like TSM only supports NDMP with a
specific vendor's machines. Specifically Network Appliance's servers. I
hope that this is not true. We are using a Mirapoint mail server. It
only supports NDMP backups. We would like to back it up through TSM. I
know we have to update our server to the latest level before we try
this, but it would be nice to know beforehand if it has a chance of
working. What version or level (if there is such a thing) of NDMP does
TSM support?
