Configuring or resetting the virtual IP address used by NetBackup

You can configure or reset the virtual IP address of NetBackup. This address is a highly-available virtual IP address in the cluster.

Note:

Configure the virtual IP address using the Backup> virtual-ip set command so that it is different from all of the virtual IP addresses, including the console server IP address and the physical IP addresses that are used to install Veritas Access. Use the Network> ip addr show command to display the currently assigned virtual IP addresses on Veritas Access.

See the backup_virtual-ip(1) man page for detailed examples.
