Hello,
I do not know the backup performance for NFS shares, but if it's cifs and 
a large share, you will not have the performance you need, as a matter of 
fact, when i tried this method with earlier versions of legato ( 7.2.1), 
it would just fail after running for a while.
NDMP\snap technologies  is the way to go with this datastores.
Thanks

Re: Celerra Recovery






Correct.  We back up a Celerra using NDMP and in the event of a disaster, 
we would need another Celerra to restore to.   That is why we are looking 
into backing up our Celerra as just a regular file share when our new one 
arrives shortly.

My understanding is that NDMP backups require a "similiar" target as the
source.  You need a Celerra to recover the data from a Celerra.  I am
looking at getting a Netapp and will test that understanding soon.
