Fair enough. But I think IBM might be the exception here (TSM is another
product that proves it).
Unfortunately, both of these products come at an upfront price that

solution. Here's how we deal with it now:
* Break your NFS volumes up into different mount points (i.e. break
/net/example/foo into /net/example/foo/dir1, /net/example/foo/dir2, ...).
Reference each mount point using

and a lot of people deal with that by ignoring it until it's a serious
