Hi, Replicate node is done over the connection you use within the "define server" command. So it is using the TSM server to server connection path.
You can define a link on OS level to be dedicated used for server to server commands (and thus also replication) while still provide client access over another interface to each of the TSM servers. Bandwidth trotteling isn't something you can define in TSM and using limited number of sessions to reduce network load might not work when source and target are for instance on fast disks. In our setup the clients can connect to both backup servers using 1 VLAN and we have TSM server to TSM server communication (also used for node replications) over an another VLAN.
