Ronny,

How have you been dealing with tape errors in your NDMP evironment?  This,
to me, seems to be one of the NDMP drawbacks..tape errors don't get
communicated to Networker well and result in backup failures?  The NetApp
logging leaves a lot to be desired also.

Well,
i´ve never noticed tape problems. Everything works fine (at least the
networker and filer logs say so)....
