[chandrakesh]

We have one 6030 SCSCI tape library, We just got in Network Appliance IPSAN box.

We want to connect tapelibrary and netapp box so that we can use NDMP to take backup direct from Netapp box. The problem is Netapp box has FC connector and my 6030 library is scsci based.

Please help me with solution on how to connect these two box....this is effecting our production backup window.....

The easiest solution is adding a fiber connection to your MSL6030

Thank You so much for this info !

Is there a way to confirm if this box (HP Storage router n1200)is compatible with NETAPPS (270C) filer. In your knowledge, is there such installation.

I just want to play safe before purchasing.. I could not find any compatibility assurance on each other product from Netapp or HP..


Will appreciate your help..
