NDMP three-way backup

If you use the NDMP three-way backup, the NetBackup for NDMP server initiates the backup. Data travels over the network by going from an NDMP host to a storage device that is attached to another NDMP host on the local network or is available on a SAN.

The following figure shows an example of an NDMP three-way backup and restore.
