Probably not

NDMP is the container used to transfer the data, but the format of the data is usually vendor-specific. You should call NetApp and ask them if it is possible.

Any other ideas

Checked with both the supports, confirmed as negative... does we have any other workarounds.

regards, Srikanth.

i dont think

I dont think there would be any workaround either..  
This is what I would do.. Try to do a test restore.. see the error that it gives, look through the logs and try to figure out if I can do some tests and find a workaround..
