We have a weekly archive requirement for our Netapp file servers and are using TSM NDMP for this. My opinion is this is one of those "misusing backups as an archive" situations and I want to change this.
We are looking at 100-150TB a week with LONG term retention and I'm not sure what options are available. I first considered using the snapdiff option, which would give us the ability to spin off new TSM instances as needed and enable TSM incremental backups. But it seems to be there should be a better method, I just don't know what it is. Any other options out there?
