I have 4 filers connected via fiber channel to an ATL P6000.  There are
5 drives dedicated to ndmp, 1 drive per filer for the first 3 filers and
the 4th has 2.  Each filer sees all the drives but only one (or 2)
drives are configured in NetBackup for each filer.

Question:

        Why can't I configure NetBackup for 4 drives per filer as long as they
never backup at the same time?

I know DDA for ndmp is not available but I wonder if the above would
work since the filers all see the other drives anyway.

I am running Ontap 6.x, qlogic fcal cards, Vixel fiber switch to P6000.

Thanks.
