Don't know how old the version you were using was but I swear by ndmpcopy, the version with the infinite incremental of course. The standard ndmpcopy only gives you 9 dump levels, and the one built into Ontap only give you 3. But since you can snapmirror qtrees in 6.2x, it makes alot less difference to me now.
For those who don't have snapmirror, how many times do you really need to copy it anyway? 3 may not be enough, but 9 normally is.

I am in the process of planning a upgrade of a F7XX Filer to version 6.2R1 has anyone done this from version 5X? I am also wanting to try out the NDMP Copy built into 62R1. Does anyone have any good things or bad to say about it? I tried it in the past using a older version and a UNIX host and it sucked. Have they really made it better by integrating it into the OnTap code? Thanks for you help in advance
