I've looked through the archive, and also across, but have had problems getting a definitive answer on the following :
We have a filer supplying an CIFS partition to an NT4 server. Our Legato ( v5.5.1 ) server is a Sun Solaris 2.6 box. Can we back up the filer to Legato without having to buy additional software ? We have tried so far, but while Legato seems to see the partition it backs up 0 files.
I have seen posts about the NetApp white paper describing how to do this, but our Legato support company says this was on an older version of Legato ( I've asked for clarification on whether they mean the functionality has been removed ).
The other option is to make the partition both NFS and CIFS, but I'm trying to avoid the pain if possible.
Thanks in advance,
