VNX with CTA backup

Hi there, 

If you have a VNX system with a CTA archiving files off, what is the best way to avoid pulling the files back when using a UNC path based backup? I assume using a RVSS or native snapshot would do the trick but I wanted to check. 

Thanks, 

Ed

    Best way is to use NDMP backup

    For CIFS you can configure the backup option to offline through fs_dhsm

    See the Using VNX FileMover PDF manual which has a section on backup strategies
