What versions of ONTAP are you running on each filer?
Also, is your intent for files to be copied such that blender:/vol/vol1/home/oldlocal/foobar ends up as grinder:/vol/vol1/foobar? That is what your command specifies. If you'd like to preserve some or all of the path from the source machine, it must be included in the destination path for instance:
ndmpcopy blender:/vol/vol1/home/oldlocal grinder:/vol/vol1/home/oldlocal

i downloaded and compiled ndmpcopy1.2 and am trying to copy a dir from one 740 (blender) to another 740 (grinder). the syntax i use is
ndmpcopy blender:/vol/vol1/home/oldlocal grinder:/vol/vol1 -level 0
it prompts me for a password and it looks like it is doing it. the source filer starts an ndmp dump session and the target filer starts an ndmp restore session and i get this output:

using df it looks like it copied something to the volume but there is nothing there. i unmounted and remounted and still nothing. what am i missing? also it says it is trying to create etc?? there isn't an etc dir in my source dir. that makes it seem as if it is trying to copy from the root level but it shouldn't be and this is real scary.
any help would be appreciated
