NetBackup NDMP does NOT use multiplexing. Also note that for NDMP the tape format is determined by the NDMP server vendor.

NDMP uses dump format as well doesn't it? So all the propositions above get a little messed around here anyhoo.

No, NDMP is format neutral.

NetApp's implementation of NDMP uses dump. tar is used by some others.
