You can use different methods for selecting the components of your backup to archive.
- Use NDMP or the storage system’s dump command to archive LUNs directly from the storage system to the archive medium.
- Mount the LUNs in a SnapManager backup Snapshot copy and share it, then use NTBackup or another Windows backup utility to copy the LUNs’ contents to the archive medium.
- Create an Exchange copy-type backup directly on the archive medium using an Exchange-aware backup application.
