Subject: Re: [Networker] Netapp NDMP backups with NW7.0 on AIX5.2


I have just done some testing, not related to these messages, with Networker
/ NDMP using Ontap SIM 6.4.1.
I completely forgot about the 8 character limit and entered the Ontap
generated password as is, this worked without noticable problem. IMHO the
password limit depends on the Ontap version.

However, I agree with that the load sleep timer could be your problem. The
best is to run NDMP in debug mode and check the error messages being send by
NDMP to networker.

Ernie,

I would agree that the 8 character limit depends on the Ontap version.
NW itself doesn't care if the password is 8 characters or 18 However,
Ontap is a different story.  Thanks also for the info about version 3.
I assume you were testing NW 7?
