SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

13       The ndmpd daemon handles client Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP)
14       requests. NDMP is an open, enterprise-wide, network-based data  manage‐
15       ment  protocol  used  for backup and recovery. The ndmpd daemon enables
16       users to manage data backup and recovery using Data Management Applica‐
17       tion  (DMA) clients. The NDMP protocol is used to coordinate data move‐
18       ment and control between a DMA and an NDMP server or between  two  NDMP
19       servers.

22       By default, ndmpd is disabled.
