I have found it will contact the last IP address that contacted it from that
particular node.   If a test system contacts the server as the nodename
unixadm1 just before the scheduled back, it will go to this client to start
the backup.

Look in the actlog for the nodename and make sure all contacts are from the
same IP address.

        Subject:        client and server IP address in different schedule
mode

        Hi all,

        I would like to know whether there is difference between schedule
polling
        and prompt mode in terms of server and client IP address.

        The scenario is:
        We changed the schedule mode to be prompt but the server cannot
contact the
        client; but the client can contact the server. We found the server
try to
        contact client with a IP address which is not that client's. But it
worked
        before, I guess it was set to polling mode.

        If client schedule set to polling mode, will it contact server with
one IP
        address (if there are multiple IP addresses on this client) and
server
        ALWAYS use it as the client IP address? Will it overwrite the IP
which is
        known on server when the client contact server at the first time?

        Thanks in advance for your help.

        Regards,
        Phillip Guan
