The Veritas HSM needs the extended inode that's available
in the vxfs filesystem in order to track what is and what
isn't physically online. These are unavailable on an NFS
mounted filesystem. Doh! :)
I would also be interested to hear if anyone else knows of
an HSM that does work with the NetApps... anyone? anyone? :)
