Hi, I have NFS on Netapp Filer that is Local (network or private) NFS on Cisco SWITCH .I had on EMC previously, But to bring down the cost this was a better solution .You can share binaries too.
Hope it helps to explain. But if you have GB as network both for storage and Applications that's fine but what is your Back bone that is running network on it also should be 1GB else you will not see the benefit.

Why not just use the gigabit card, for all TSM traffic? Is it better to keep the high-speed backups on the giga bit interface and keep the scheduler traffic on its own? It seems like a lot of extra work and confusion. Consequently, I have a very similar setup, and I'm always interested in ways to make the backups run faster. Thanks Miles >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08-Sep-03 6:15:05 AM >>> Hi there, I guess you already got the right answer from Rene. Just add another entry to dsm.sys with tcpserveraddress pointing to the ip address of the GB card. The scheduler will be started with the default entry and handle connections through the 10/100MBit network while you will need to start your backup client either with the option "-se=gbit_address" or with using an alternative dsm.opt file employing the "-optfile=dsm_gbit_address.opt" option. Also, do not forget to define or modify your schedules appropriately by setting the option field for the relevant schedules to one of the above.
