Does anyone know where to find white papers or best practise about how to setup a backupnet.

Hi @TBeckDK 

We have documentation to cover a backup network.

If you physically setup the interfaces on client servers and media agents, then you would need to configure this within the Commcell as data interface pairs where traffic between certain clients/MAs/groups can be directed over specific interfaces.

Dedicated Backup Network

Scenarios for Data Interface Pairs

 

As an example, shown in the figure below, data traffic can be conducted through the backup.com domain to reduce the network traffic on the production domains. This scenario requires the following data interface pairs:

  • ma1.backup.com and client.backup.com

    This data interface pair transmits data through the backup.com domain. The default network interface for the client is client.prod1.com, and the default network interface for the MediaAgent1 is ma1.prod1.com.

  • ma1.backup.com and ma2.backup.com

    This data interface pair conducts auxiliary copy operations over the backup.com domain. The default network interface for MediaAgent2 is ma2.prod2.com.
