 To put it midly, ADSM is a POS.  For some reason it checks the
 filesystem type of the partition where the data it is trying to backup
 is located, finds it's "xfs", it has no idea what that is and bombs
 out.

 The local people in charge or the ADSM backups ended up exporting the
 filesystem to the same machine where it resides and mounting that over
 NFS (foo exports it's filesystems to foo).  ADSM is happy with that.
