What is the network address on the GigE, and on the old ethernet? If they're
both on the same network, TCP/IP will ship packets out on the low-numbered
host-address interface, IIRC.

To use two NICs you need to have two networks.

My primary SAP DB server has a bundle --

backup1 GigE    192.168.194.62 255.255.255.0
backup2 GigE    192.168.195.62 255.255.255.0
public  100Mb   10.8.224.25        255.255.0.0
admin           100Mb 192.168.193.62 255.255.255.0
private 100Mb 192.168.192.62 255.255.255.0

These are all seperate networks (and I have a few more -- hacmp standby
adapters, on two more networks); traffic does not route between any of them,
and I have no problems using the gig-e for backup/restore.

Server: TSMv5,1,6.1 running on MVS
Client: TSMv5,1,5.6 running on Solaris v5.8

Multiple NICs

Trying to force client to use specific NIC (GIGE).  I've specified
TCPCLIENTADDRESS in the dsm.sys file, stopped and started the deamon (for
giggles) and then logged into the TSM server.  When I issue
the command q node xxxxx f=d, the TCP/IP Address shows up as the old fast
ethernet address.  Any suggestions/help.
