I need to backup an Isilon storage system over LAN, since there are approx. 40 
km between TSM server and Storage system. I have created its own domain for 
this backup, with its own storage pool.
I have defined a node and a datamover with type = NAS.

When I start a backup:
backup node dcc-isilon01 / ifs toc = no mode = full

I get this error:
