This has to be a marketing effort in order to push the SONAS product. I drooled a little bit when i learned it has a built in TSM client and uses its special sonas grid-search thing to perform the incremental scan.

Your observations confirm other support information I was told. It's really unfortunate that this is not supported. We are strongly considering getting an N Series gateway and I was hoping to be able to do this, but the folks who would be using it are insisting that they need Multistore and would thus be using mostly vFilers. So I guess it's back to NDMP or backing up the slow way via TSM incrementals from a NAS client. We're doing Backup Stgpools to an offsite tape library and I'm concerned what the periodic Full NDMP backups will do to that network link. ..Paul At 04:13 PM 2/8/2011, Shawn Drew wrote: >I tried this a few months ago and it didn't work.
