Hi,

We dont use dns in our backup network. Will that complicate things?

So long as all of your routes are working properly and your DNS is 
working properly, this won't cause you any grief.  We've got multiple 
networks in place here and it's working fine.

If you're using BMR, then you have to be a bit more concerned but that's 
the only part of NetBackup that I'm aware that cares about what subnet 
you're on.
