Hi Paul,
yes, you can do that. You will need to configure LACP (ether-channel) on
server and from lan switch side. Just to now that single backup session
will be limited by the speed of single nic, in other words if you have
4x1Gbps NIC single backup session will be 1Gbps, while the total throughput
to tsm will be 4Gbps, in your case 2Gbps. That means in your case if you
have 2 backup clients connected on 1Gbps to LAN, each one can send data to
tsm server with max speed 1Gbps.
