Hi Ed Yes I know .. the upgrade will need to wait a little longer.
I'm not trying to share the drive between normal backups and NDMP backups. The drive attached to the NAS is doing backups now. I want to split the volumes into separate policies because of the size of the volumes and configure another drive to backup the other volumes. How can I configure the 2nd drive to run NDMP backups for the policy created for the other volumes? I thought there is a way I can change the drive path using tpconfig to backup the nas. Will I need to authenticate the Master server with the filer to use this 2nd drive which is directly attached to the Master (1st drive attached directly to the nas)? Goal - 2 drives backing up multiple NDMP policies I know the upgrade is needed but that is out of my control at the moment. Any suggestions?

Starting with 6.5 (I don't think it made it into 6.0 but definitely > wasn't in 5.x), you can share a drive between the 2 environments. > > 5.0 is totally unsupported by Symantec.
