Hi,
I have configured the following Topology which has all clients backing up to a HSX Cluster via Proxies.

The Proxies have the following installed.

All backups & restore are going through the proxies and I am happy with this setup but I have two queries.
- Is there a way to tell what proxy the backup job going through ? You can’t see the proxy mentioned on the job logs or under streams running the job. You also can’t see if when you add the Network Gateway column to your job controller window.
- When testing restores I stop the CV services on two of my three proxies. I run a restore job and the job fails and it says it can’t communicate with a proxy “name” - my thinking here is it tries to use the same proxy for restore as it did for backup and as its off its fails. If I select Advanced Options → Use MediaAgent and select the only running proxy then the restore job completes. Is there a way for the restore job to look for a Proxy that's able to communicate rather than me having to tell the restore job ?
Thanks
