Syntax

 isi ndmp settings preferred-ips create --scope <scope> --data-subnets <subnets>
		[{verbose | -v}]

Options

--scope <scope>

Specifies the scope of the preferred IP setting. The scope determines the conditions under which the IPs listed under the data-subnets will be preferred during a three-way NDMP backup or restore operation. The scope can either be the subnet that is receiving the incoming NDMP request or it can be a cluster in case of a cluster-wide preference. There can be upto one preference setting for each subnet scope and one for the cluster scope.

--data-subnets <subnets>

Specifies a comma-separated list of flexnet subnet names where the IPs in the subnets are preferred for outgoing data (during a backup) or incoming data (during a restore). The list of IPs are rearranged according to the order of subnets listed under data-subnets. If an IP is in the listed data-subnets, that IP is placed at the top of the list. A subnet in the data-subnets has no effect if none of the IPs in the list belong to the subnet. The preferences will be applied only under the condition specified by the scope parameter. The scope and data-subnets values can be set to the same subnet. In this case, the same subnet is used for the NDMP outgoing data even as the incoming data comes in on that subnet. For example, if the scope is groupnet0.subnet0, the data-subnets value is 10gnet.subnet0,globalnet0.subnet0, and the NDMP data for a backup operation comes in over groupnet0.subnet0, the IP of 10gnet.subnet0 is placed at the top of the list, However, if that IP is not available, then the IP of globalnet0.subnet0 is placed at the top of the list. The subnet names must always be separated by commas.
