One of the locations I work with is using NBU 5.0 MP7 Windows environment.

There are 4 drives

3 - connected to the Master and 1 drive directly attached to the filer.

I want to dedicate two drives to the backing up the NAS.

1 drive is direct attached to the NAS and is configured properly and works.

The additional drive is connected to the Master Server.

I am trying to configure this drive attahced to the Master as a secondary drive for NDMP backups.

Are you trying to share the same drive between NetBackup and NDMP? In 5.0, you can't - the drive must be 100% available for NetBackup backups or 100% NDMP. Starting with 6.5 (I don't think it made it into 6.0 but definitely wasn't in 5.x), you can share a drive between the 2 environments.

5.0 is totally unsupported by Symantec. It's time for an upgrade...
