Thanks Shawn. 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.
