This would be interesting to hear about as we have started to look at other NAS devices to use a TSM backup[ Target, we all know DataDomain and Soon Protectier does the NAS mount + Dedupe, but would / could you get better pricing or performance from a non Backup Appliance? Netapp Dedupes, HDS Bluearc so how well do they do and would they be cheaper than an appliance developed and sold for the purpose of backups.

Does anyone have thoughts on this? From: Mayhew, James Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2012 6:42 PM To: 'ADSM-L@vm.marist.edu' Subject: NetApp for Primary Disk Pool Hello All, We are considering using a NetApp V6210 with some attached shelves as a block storage TSM primary disk pool. Do any of you have any experience using NetApp storage as a TSM primary disk pool? If so, how was your experience with this solution? Did you have any performance issues? How was it with sequential workloads? Any insight that you all can provide is greatly appreciated.
