Client nodes must be registered and configured for LAN-free backups.

To help tune the use of your LAN and SAN resources for LAN-free data movement, you can control the path that data transfers take for clients that have LAN-free data movement capability. For each client, you can select whether data read/write operations use the LAN path, the LAN-free path, or either path. You can specify these settings with the REGISTER NODE and UPDATE NODE commands.
If the node belongs to a multi-threaded client and there are drives available, the MAXNUMMP parameter might restrict the number of drives that are available for the storage agent to use on behalf of the client. Specify the MAXNUMMP parameter on the REGISTER NODE or UPDATE NODE command.
