NetWorker Data Domain DDBoost Client Direct Multiple Networks
I have a customer that has three different Vlans. They are all isolated. One is for Windows, another for VMware and another for UNIX. On the Data Domain we have a quad port 10gig and 4 onboard 1gig interfaces. The customer has 10gig for UNIX network and the others are 1gig. I understand the concept of Dynamic IF groups, however we want to leverage client direct from all hosts. How do I make this happen? Customer is using DNS for Windows servers, /etc/host files for UNIX and also VMware is DNS. Within Networker there is a setting for (network interface) this allows you to move the data flow over a backup network. How does this apply to Client Direct to send data directly to the DD? Is there something special that need to be set?

Do you mean create ddboost devices? i dont understand interface (devices).
Can you please elaborate on your comment. thanks so much.

If you want to use client direct, create interfaces (devices) in NW for each VLAN.

Yes. In NMC you define devices media server over each VLAN. Group clients in such way that you know which group is for which VLAN and then connect groups with appropriate devices via media pools. I don't know if you use storage nodes or not (in essence they are not needed if using DDBoost), but if using wizard you would create devices with DD first on DDvlan1, then DDvlan2 (using name of DD on vlan2) and then DDvlan3 (using name of DD on vlan3). On DD front, I do not have experience with ifgroups as I use LACP, but I assume you would either create interface listeners via 1Gbps interfaces and have one member of 10Gbps for that group that would get used to accept backups.
