Hi,

we are running a networker storage node which is backing up a netapp
filer over ndmp. In order to avoid very high utilisation during a
fullbackup we have created three clients to backup all the volumes of
the filer. Each client is started by a different group at a different
time and is backing up some volumes. All volumes of the filer are backed
up when all clients have finished.

As all three clients are backing up parts of the same host I think that
the index is being backed up more or less three times. As the index is
quite big (greater than 30gb) I'd like to avoid that.
So the idea is to backup the index for the filer only once after all
clients have finished.

There is the option "no index save" within the group configuration to
disable an index backup. I am now searching for a method to backup the
indexes for that particular netapp filer after all the related
savegroups have finished.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
