He is talking about a "3-way" NDMP backup introduced with NDMP v2. It lets you use a second file server as a remote storage agent. File Server 1 --> LAN --> File Server 2 --> Local/SAN attached tape drive.
The following thread discusses it, but I never got it working and I don't think there was a definite resolution or documentation on it. I was able to get the "Remote" NDMP over IP variant working that is described in the TSM 5.4 5.5 Technical guide: File Server 1 --> LAN --> TSM Server --> TSM Native storage pool (not Netappdump) but not the "classic"3-way backup. http://adsm.org/lists/html/ADSM-L/2009-10/msg00255.html Regards, Shawn ________________________________ Shawn Drew > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, June 07, 2013 3:18 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [ADSM-L] SV: TSM NDMP separate data and tape server > > Hi Grant, > What do you mean? > You can backup a NetApp direct to Tape but still keep track in TSM. > > /Christian > > -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- > Från: Grant Street [mailto:[email protected]] > Skickat: den 5 juni 2013 08:59 > Till: [email protected] > Ämne: TSM NDMP separate data and tape server > > Hi > > I just want to confirm, my research.... > > Can you have the NDMP Data Server on a Windows server backing up to a > the Tape server on a Netapp using TSM? > > I know a Netapp can be a DATA and TAPE server in one but according to the > NDMP Definitions you should be able to separate them. > > Thanks > > Grant This message and any attachments (the "message") is intended solely for the addressees and is confidential.
