Faulty information in Admin guide 11d regarding NDMP option

Harry_Beekman
Level 3
the admin guide of 11d Appendi U page 1563, contains the following:

"You can back up NDMP data only to the NDMP storage devices; however, the BackupExec server and the NDMP server can share a storage device. The duplicating of NDMP backup sets is not supported."

This indicates you can backup a NDMP filer and "normal" files to a NDMP tapestreamer, attached to the SAN.
This is incorrect! it only can backup NDMP to NDMP and "Normal" to local attached drives!

Is ther a other way to backup a NetApp filer to a BackupExec attached tapestreamer?

Backup Exec server and a filer can share a storage device within a SAN, but not the tapes inside it, as long as I know, a tape must belong to one of them.

But the library can be shared.
