Backing up NSS, note for the future
According to this documentation, the storing of NSS/NetWare metadata in xattrs is turned off by default. You turn it on for OES2 servers through the "nss /ListXattrNWMetadata" command. This allows linux level utilities (i.e. cp, tar) to be able to access and copy the NSS metadata. This also allows backup software that isn't SMS enabled for OES2 to be able to backup the NSS information.
This is handy, as HP DataProtector doesn't support NSS backup on Linux. I need to remember this.
