Re: Backup up a NetApp Filer without using NDMP

Thanks for the help everyone. NDMP looked unsupportable to us since it'd require putting the Filer on our SAN and we don't have a currently have system to charge for data sent across the SAN. NDMP via the network looks like a workable option though. Thanks again, -- Brian Kunst Storage Admin
