EMCs strategy is NDMP through an NDMP accelerator node that has an initial full and then only sends the changes thereafter but each backup is considered a full.
Tom,
Thanks. Interesting. That is a horrible way to backup volumes. That was the solution before NDMP. CommVault suggested the same thing. EMC has a hardware solution that they say gets good Dedupe rates with inline NDMP stream backups with an incremental forever strategy. I wanted to see if the Netbackup Accelerator offers similar features.

Per conversations with engineering, ndmp does not dedupe well. It was suggested that we mount the volumes to a media server and run it to a dedupe pool. Ymmv
