We are not actually using DDRs with NetBackup but direct from RMAN, and will 
not be automounting.

However our design does allow that we might use automounts if we had > 1 DDR 
available.   The theory is that as the individual DDR does not have much 
redundancy, it would be possible to have an automount list that had a primary 
DDR but also listed a second as fallback.  That of course would be bad for 
deduplication, but that might be better than having nowhere to send the data to.

I’ll send you off-list a very dated Data Domain technote on using DDR with 
NetBackup that has several ‘must do’ items for configuring NFS and the required 
mount options.  There may be a more recent version available on MyDataDomain.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Automount for deduplication appliances

Are any of you using automount for NFS mounts of deduplication (Data Domain or 
Quantum DXi) shares to your UNIX/Linux hosts?   If so has it caused you any 
issues?

On the flip side have any of you specifically decided NOT to use automount and 
would you be willing to share your reasoning?
