Glad my old post helped. This particular solution was if people wanted to use a
dedicated interface for the DSA (network based) NDMP backups. We do that so
that we can enable jumbo frames (reduces the total number of packets per sec
and reduces the interrupt level on the legato server).

Subject: [Networker] 7.5 NDMP Problems
I belive my problems are solved thanks to an old posting from Matthew Huff!!! I
don't know why the backups broke after the upgrade but this is what made things
work again from Matt's instructions...
1) Setup DNS names for the 2nd interfaces. For example:
NetApp Servers
Host: netapp_a, IP: 10.1.1.1, backup interface: netapp_a_nsr, IP 10.2.1.1
Host: netapp_b, IP: 10.1.1.2, backup interface: netapp_b_nsr, IP 10.2.1.2
Server: legato_a, IP: 10.1.1.3, backup interface: legato_a_nsr, IP 10.2.1.3
Make sure that the names and IP resolve via DNS both forward and backwards
2) Save the client ids of the netapp servers in Legato and delete them. Re-add
them with the "netapp_a_nsr" name but with their old client_id. This will
preserve their indexes and savesets but will be configured correctly
3) Under the client properties in Legato, change the tab "Server
network-interface:" under Globals (1 of 2) to the "legato_a_nsr" interface
4) Change the "backup command" part of "Apps & Modules" to nsrndmp_save -P
legato_a_nsr -M -T dump
