No, you would not use the NDMP functionality of NetBackup if you were to use a
NetApp VTL.
What you need to purchase is the appropriate number of front-end terabytes of
Standard or Enterprise Disk licenses.
Standard Disk is appropriate if you choose NOT to use deduplication on the
NetApp VTL.

Do you have virtual IP addresses/hostnames that also float with each grouping
of drives?
If so, you can create four separate policies - one for the OS and then one for
each virtual IP.
Policy virtual-1
client virtual-1
drives F, G, H
Policy virtual-2

It is not possible to use a CIFS share as the catalog as your initial post
requested.
It is, however, possible to send backups to a CIFS share.
Three things are needed to do this.
1. A Windows Media Server
2. Change the 'NetBackup Client Service' and 'NetBackup Remote Manager and
Monitor Servic
The big one is that there is no dedup support - for either media server dedup
or the PDDO plugin.
Appliances that use NFS or FC VTL do work.
OST plugin support from the manufacturers varies - for example, Data Domain
does not have a Solaris x86 plugin but Quantum does.
Another big one is that th
Simple - time to perform the backup might still be shorter.
A couple years ago I did a Data Domain install at a customer that was using SQL
LiteSpeed for their SQL servers.
SQL LiteSpeed was compressing the data before sending it over the wire.
Even though they got better dedup numbers with comp

Joe,
After restoring the LUN file on the DR filer, you will need to manually create
the igroup and map the restored LUN file to that igroup.
It sounds like what you are referring to the "setup" of the LUN is actually the
mapping of that LUN to an igroup.
This mapping information is not backed up
I think what you are being told is accurate, but that you have misinterpreted
it slightly.
You can certainly use two (or more) Data Domain OST storage units within a
storage unit group.
Any data written to a Data Domain will be replicated from siteA to siteB via
OST Optimized Duplication (OptD
