Thanks Shawn. Your observations confirm other support information I was told.
It's really unfortunate that this is not supported. We are strongly
considering getting an N Series gateway and I was hoping to be able to do this,
but the folks who would be using it are insisting that they need Multistore and
would thus be using mostly vFilers. So I guess it's back to NDMP or backing up
the slow way via TSM incrementals from a NAS client. We're doing Backup
Stgpools to an offsite tape library and I'm concerned what the periodic Full
NDMP backups will do to that network link.
