Just a thought, but the fact that its snapmirror destination its read only, there for backup program can't flip the archive attribute. Maybe that helps?

Subject: luns cannot be backup via backup exec
 hello everybody
we have several luns that cannot be backued up from veritas backup exec. These luns are mounted via cifs and had initally security style unix, that recently changed to ntfs (before starting backup proccess), therfore we cannot change the lun share from "none" to"read" in order to make them  capable to be backed up (the command returns "read only file system"). Plz note that these luns are snapvault destination (no snapvault destination is running during the backup proccess). Has anyone any knowledge or a workaround in how to make the lun share "read" , and what else needs to be done , to be able to backup the luns
thnks in advance
John
