To set default backup and restore options for NDMP

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

2. On the Properties pane, under Job Defaults, click NDMP.

3. Select the appropriate options as follows:

   Backup method	Select this option to specify the backup level. Level 0 provides a full backup. Levels 1 through 9 provide various levels of incremental backups. Level 1 backup method backs up new or modified files since the level 0 backup, level 2 backup method backs up new or modified files since the level 1 backup, and so on.
   Back up Access Control Lists	Select this option to back up NetApp Access Control Lists.
   Enable file history	This option is selected by default. File history allows for the recovery of selected subsets of data from the backup history. If you uncheck Enable file history, file history data is not generated, but backup time may be reduced.

   Backup type	Select one of the following backup types: VBB (EMC only) Dump
   Back up with integrated checkpoints (SnapSure)	Select this option to enable Backup Exec to create a backup set that uses the EMC SnapSure feature. This feature applies only to EMC. For more information about SnapSure, see your EMC documentation.
   Enable file history	This option is selected by default. File history allows for the recovery of selected subsets of data from the backup history. If you uncheck Enable file history, file history data is not generated, but backup time may be reduced.
   Enable tape silvering	Select this option to enable Backup Exec to create a backup set that you can use to replicate data by using tape silvering. This option applies only to EMC.
   Restore Access Control Lists	Select this option to restore NetApp Access Control Lists.
   Enable Direct Access Recovery	Select this option to have Backup Exec use Direct Access Recovery (DAR) during the restore job. With DAR-enabled recovery, Backup Exec can specify the exact location of a file in a backup data stream. The NDMP server can then read the data applicable to the single file being restored, which reduces the amount of information that is processed and significantly reduces recovery time. If DAR is not available, the restore may take significantly longer.
   Restore without writing data to disk (Verify data without doing a restore)	Select this option to test the validity of the data that you selected for the restore job. Backup Exec does not restore the data. For NetApp/IBM filers, you should use this option to verify data instead of Backup Exec's verify backup job option.

4. Click OK.
