Hey Dan C.,

I was going to start looking into that exact same setup.  What version of 
netbackup and netapp vtl were you using?  I'm currently using direct tape copy 
but the issue we have now is that too many tapes are going offsite.  So i was 
going to utilize SLPs and use the VTL as the data mover like you were saying to 
help resolve this without completely restructuring my netbackup policies.

My concern is that if i do this, it's going to have to be a cut-over because we 
want the vtl to be reformatted into a filer at the same time.  This way i can 
pave the way for site to site replication between filers and eliminate tape 
completely.

Anyways, would you mind going into what kinds of issues you were having?  It 
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Matt
