Gavin,
How long is the root password on the Netapp? You will need to make
sure it is 8 characters or less otherwise a NDMP connection will not be able
to be made from the Legato Server.

Subject: Legato and NDMP
We've just received a nice new F825, which we're trying to integrate into
our exsiting Legato Networker backup system. I've been speaking to our
Legato support, but they're not getting very far, and each day that passes
is another day for us without backups.
We have a Quantum ATL1500 jukebox directly attached (Robot controller and
one drive) to a Sun box, which is a Legato storage node. The 2nd SCSI drive
is connected to the back of our F825, which picks it up fine, and is
configured as an NDMP device in Networker.
Now, the problem is, Networker complains that it can't establish an NDMP
connection to the F825, even tho NDMP is enabled on the F825, and I've
double-checked the username is root and the password is correct. Attempting
to do an inventory in nwadmin fails on either device in the jukebox.
Also, NDMP doesn't do incrementals the normal way, so I was thinking of just
backing up the F825 over the NFS mounts, but I hear that's not a good idea
with Legato.
We're running DOT 6.3.1r1 and Legato Networker 6.1.3.
Anyone have any suggestions, apart from "stop using Legato"?
Cheers,
Gavin.
