Yes, and slower'n hell. NFS mounting is not ADSM the way it needs to be done.
Williams has a -lot- of holes where EMC bailed out, and ADSM support is an unbearably large hole in the NetApp strategy here.
Everyone loves it, everyone wants it, but can't go near it.
The single reason I have NA in here, is there's no need to backup 1GB of Usenet News.

The ADSM folks are looking into the possibility of providing support for NetApp, but there is no commitment. This is still under evaluation.
In the meanwhile, ADSM works with NetApp over NFS mounts and I believe over CIFS shares.

Hi David,
You may want to clarify NetApp's position.
Cheers, Grant

Oh geesh, an Email from my sales/regional SE's I think about a month back.
Theyve been true to me so far!

Jeff, Do you know where you received this information? I would like to follow up on it and see if I might be able to obtain some additional details. Thank you, Mike Ball

From what I understand (sorry if this is already answered)
IBM had NA
hardware in the Lab, and we should expect a Java engine for it soon.
Williams is crying for it.

Does anyone know if the F760 will work with the IBM ADSM
backup system?
The ADSM system is used to backup over 200 NT servers
over the network,
and we would like to use it to backup the F760 filer running CIFS. Has anyone had any
experience
with
the IBM ADSM backup system and any Netapp filer?
