You should be able to specify "/vol/volname/../snapname" in the backup set. I did it with another backup product before. When a snapshot is specified, ONTAP doesn't create a snap and uses the specified snap (and doesn't delete after like the temp snap when none is specified).

Guys,
Anyone know if it's possible do an NDMP backup (using CommVault) of a *named* snapshot? Basically I need to snapshot two or more volumes at the same time (I can do this in a pre-script) and then let the snapshots be backed up.
I guess I could be silly and just create a flex clone volumes and then back those volumes up instead, which would get rid of the issue, but would complicate things a bit more.
