Not all NAS devices support NDMP to TSM, make sure you verify that prior to purchasing. : : Greg Yuzik : : -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Whitlock, Brett Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2007 9:22 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] NDMP We are in the process of investigating some new NAS devices.

These would go to W2K3 TSM Servers (5.3.3) with EMC clarrion disk libraries attached. Good? Bad? Gotcha's?. Do I lose individual file restorability with the Full + differential lifestyle? What am I getting myself into? Thanks, Brett
