Hello; I thought we were the only people on the planet using NDMP. Without knowing what version of Tivoli/OS/OnTap you are using; TSM v5.2.0.2 supports file level backup/restore. You have to use a table of contents. This info is available in the ITSM Administrators Guide v5.2 (chapter 6). Hope this helps.

Anyway I want to be able to split up the NDMP backups on the NetApp filer we have into smaller chunks. My aim is to do backups at the qtree level eg /vol/vol1/qtree1. This way I can reduce the impact on re-running a failed backup if something goes wrong with the tape drive. However from what I can see TSM will only backup at the node or volume level.
