As far as I am aware, you cannot restore NDMP backups to
non-NDMP devices and writing NDMP backups to different NDMP devices is hit or
miss. I’ve run NDMP backups on several different NAS devices, NetApps
(various versions on ONTAP), Sun Unified Storage Platform, StorageTek, OpenFiler
and the best I have been able to do is to restore an NDMP backup to the same manufacturer
of NAS device with a different model / software / firmware release.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NDMP restore issue
Hi ,
I have an issue and need to reply to customer ASAP.
server - solaris box NB6.5.6 (not an NDMP host)
we have been asked to restore NDMP backup to a mount point on a solaris server.
While restoring it throws below error :
Error bpbrm (pid=20089) cannot retrieve NDMP credentials for
host B, error = 254
Error bpbrm (pid=20099) client restore EXIT STATUS 114: unimplemented error
code 114
Is it possible to restore NDMP backup to a diff.
servers rather than to NDMP hosts?
Is there way out by which we
can achieve above objective (NDMP backup restore to non ndmp host)?
