Access date affected by NDMP backups?
Hello:
I want to figure out if NDMP backups on an Isilon cluster will affect "Access date.". One of my customers is using SmartPools and wants to create a Policy based on Access-time, but runs NDMP backups every night so it would be pointless unless NDMP bypasses the access time.
Thank you

NDMP always runs on a snapshot, so it CANNOT modify the original files' timestamps...

Luckily, NDMP does NOT modify the access time stamps when backing up files

Thank you Peter. "Luckily" doesn't sound very official...
