Configuring a policy for a multi-NIC

The private name of the client must be added to the Clients list of the policy. The NetBIOS or public name of the client should not be used.

In the following procedure, the NetBackup client machine that backs up SQL Server is SQLHOST. The private interface that is used to back up SQLHOST is SQLHOST-NB.

To configure a policy for a multi-NIC

  1. Open the NetBackup Administration Console.

  2. Create a new policy or open an existing policy.

  3. In the Clients list for the policy, add a new client.

    Specify the Client name as the private interface name. For example, SQLHOST-NB.
