Servers with two IP addresses

[edgonz]

Hello,

I have several servers that have two IP addresses. One address is for the production network and the other address is for a private network. Recently, Veeam started to access the server using the private network IP, which it doesn't have access to, is there a way to tell the Veeam server to use the production network IP address instead?

Thanks!

What kind of role do these servers have in VB&R context? VMware hosts VMs reside on, Virtual Machines to backup, machines running special role, like proxy, repository, etc.? Thanks.

My apologies, these are just VM servers that Veeam backs up. These are Windwos 2012 R2 Enterprise servers.

You could try this. B&R Console main menu, Network Traffic, Networks. Check the box for "Prefer the following networks for backup and replication traffic" and add in the network address of the production network. BTW, this assumes that the backup is using NBD. If hot add or Direct SAN are being used, the network should be irrelevant.
