we are using netbackup 7.6.1.2 and doing several netapp cdot 8.3 backups, which are not cab but node-scope-mode. in the policy the client is the netapp node that physically has the volume attached, and the include list is /vserver/volume. we need to do a "smtape" backup for a volume, but when we add "set type = smtape" to the include list, we get an error 99. the job details log shows: "Backup operation type 'smtape' not supported". backing up a netapp in 7-mode volume with the smtape option works fine. upgrading to 7.7 which has more cdot flexibility isn't an option in the near future. has anyone used this option with cdot and nb7.6 successfully? thanks.
