Configuring the NetBackup client with the private interface name
To perform backups over a private network interface, NetBackup must use the private name of the client. If you installed the NetBackup client using the public interface name, follow this procedure to configure the NetBackup client name as the private interface name.
For cluster environments, additional configuration is required. In that case, NetBackup must use the private virtual name of the SQL Server cluster.
See Configuring backups of clustered SQL Server instances (legacy SQL Server policies).
To configure the NetBackup client with the private interface name
- Open the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface.
- Select File > NetBackup Client Properties.
- Click the General tab.
- In the Client name box, specify the private name of the client.
For example, the private name for the computer
sqlhost1issqlhost1-NB.
