You do not lose the individual file recovery as long as you setup the
TOC properly.

Look at chapter 7.

Not all NAS devices support NDMP to TSM, make sure you verify that prior
to purchasing.

Subject: [ADSM-L] NDMP

We are in the process of investigating some new NAS devices.  Our
current boxes are Windows based and we embrace the incremental forever
philosophy.
 
Will you please weigh in with your experiences regarding CELERRA VS BLUE
ARC using NDMP for backups?  These would go to W2K3 TSM Servers (5.3.3)
with EMC clarrion disk libraries attached.
 
Good?  Bad? Gotcha's?.  Do I lose individual file restorability with the
Full + differential lifestyle?  What am I getting myself into?
 
Thanks,  Brett
