NDMP Configuration
The Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) service enables the system to participate in
NDMP-based backup and restore operations controlled by a remote NDMP client called a Data
Management Application (DMA). Using NDMP, data stored in administrator-created shares on
the appliance can be backed up and restored to both locally attached tape devices and remote
systems. Locally-attached tape devices can also be exposed to the DMA for backing up and
restoring remote systems.
NDMP cannot be used to back up and restore system configuration data. Instead, use the
Configuration Backup and Restore feature (see
Storage Appliance Customer Service
To configure NDMP, see the following sections:

NDMP Local vs. Remote Configurations
The appliance supports backup and restore using both a local configuration, in which tape
drives are physically attached to the appliance, and a remote configuration, in which data is
streamed to another system on the same network. In both cases, the backup must be managed by
a supported DMA.
In local configurations, supported tape devices, including both drives and changers (robots),
are physically connected to the system using a supported SCSI or Fibre Channel (FC) card
configured in Initiator mode. These devices can be viewed on the NDMP Status screen. The
NDMP service presents these devices to a DMA when the DMA scans for devices. Once
configured in the DMA, these devices are available for backup and restore of the appliance
or other systems on the same network. After adding tape drives or changers to the system or
removing such devices from the system, a reboot may be required before the changes will be
