Three methods that I'm aware of:
 
1. Use a snapshot of your primary filesystems mounted on an off-host server
to backups.
 
2. Use an off-host data mover - an applicance that sits in your SAN and
actually move the data blocks.  Your primary server is still mined for the
meta-data but the bulk of the blocks move via a different path.
 
3. Use a clustered filesystem and simultaneously mount the filesystems on
multiple servers.

We have a STK280 that we're backing up through the individual servers
attached to it.  We'd like to be able to backup directly from the SAN.  Is
there a way to do that with Veritas?
