-----Original Message----- In one of our setup, customer has given a dedicated network port for backup. We have to enable this IP and port from TSM server side and client side for backup.
Basis details are Server physical host name is : eccdb Service ip address for SAP application: 192.168.1.100 /etc/hosts having the first entry against Service IP address, ie 192.168.1.100 eccdb ... ... 172.16.10.100 eccbkp They have dedicated the ip address 172.16.10.100 for backup. Here they are also running the LAN Free backup. and i have updated the HL address in and in storage agent config. but when we start the storage agent service, it is picking the the 192.168.1.100. I have checked it from the dsmsta process. dsmstat process is listing on port 1500 against ip address 192.168.1.100. I have also updated the HL address in TSM server for storage agent server. My backup is running perfectly but running of service ip address. Where as it should run on 172.16.10.100 ip address as i have mentioned in the config file dsmsta.opt. Any one has any idea on this. -----End Original Message----- I think you will need to execute a 'route add' command on eccdb to specify the eccbkp interface as the preferred interface for packets destined for the subnet on which the TSM server is located. As far as I know, the effects of a 'route add' command do not persist across reboots in Linux or Unix environments. You will probably need to arrange to have the 'route add' command run as part of the system initialization process. Different implementations/distributions offer different options for doing this, and different sites may have differing conventions on this point.
