Add machine to management server using its HBA Port

Thread needs solution

Hi is it possible to add a machine to management server and allow the backup traffic to go through the 8Gb HBA port? Has this been done before?

I'm planning to install 8GBPS HBA Cards to my servers and connect them all to a SAN switch including the Acronis Management Server. From there I would like to route all my backup traffic to the SAN switch.

Thanks for your answers.

John

Hi John,

Thank you for your posting! If you have a VMware virtual environment, please follow this article to configure LAN-free backup. Otherwise you can use open-source resources to set up a SAN switch, there are no special options in the product. If all components are connected through Fibre Channel, data also should go through it.

Thank you,
