We just use tar to backup our NetApp filesystems using the Amanda client
on the machines where they are mounted.  Mounting them on your Amanda
server can save a lot of network traffic, but may be slower if you are
using client compression and/and have several NFS filesystems.  Also, make
sure your disklist entry is the mount point (or below) since tar won't
descend into another filesystem using the options Amanda calls it with.

Good luck,
Frank
