Backup NAS Proxy by NDMP
Hi everyone.
I am trying to do the next:
I have a unity 300 in my main CPD that we will call it CPD1, then, I have other unity 300 in CPD2.
Unity from CPD2 has a NAS server where a department from the company stores their files there. This NAS is replicated against CPD1. I would like to do a backup from the repicated NAS in the destination (CPD1) using the NDMP protocol in order to backup it to a robotic library.
I created a NAS proxy in destination (CPD1) and enabled NDMP. I am using backup exec, and I am able to add the NDMP server, however, I am not able to list the NAS and I can't choose what filesever to backup.
Is it supported to backup from replication destination by NDMP? If yes, how can I do it?
edit: I tried to create an interface of Backup and DR test and enable NDMP in the replicated NAS destination directly. Then I add in backup exec the NDMP server using that new IP address interface but I get the same problem.
Thanks in advance.

You are completely right.
In order to achieve what I wanted to do, I enabled in the destination NAS a Backup/DR interface and enabled NDMP.
Everything worked like a charm.
Thanks for answering.
