Thank you for the document.
My scenario was : Server1 - cell manager, Server2- HP storeeasy storage. I wanted to backup to disk over the network to Server2. One way was creating a iSCSI disk within Server2 and then mounting it to Server1. I thought that was cumbersome.
However, there was a line in the document that mentioned that you would need to install StoreOnce component on the Server where you would want to store the backup. So, I did that and that populated the Server2 as the deduplication system. I was able to give the local path of Server2 volume/lun after that.
I guess my second last question would be what gateway to use. There are two gateways for this device that I can use - Server1 and server2 gateways. If I choose Server1 gateway then Server1 MA will be writing to server2, correct? Meaning, there will be less load on server2 during backup operation?
