Pre-Installation Checklist For Redundant Networking

Before deploying the nodes, complete the following checklist with the information needed for the deployment.

Each node will require an IP Address for both the Data Protection and Storage Pool Networks as follows:

	Node 1	Node 2	Node 3
Data Protection IP Address*
Data Protection Netmask*
Data Protection Gateway*
Data Protection DNS 1*
Data Protection DNS 2
Data Protection DNS 3
Storage Pool IP Address*
Storage Pool Netmask*

* Required fields If you are a new Customer without an existing Commvault environment and would like to deploy the appliance as an all-in-one backup and recovery solution, additional IP addresses and associated hostnames will be required. These will be used to setup virtual machines that will house the Commvault Commserve server, which is a critical component of the Commvault architecture. It is responsible for coordinating all operations, storing metadata, and providing a central configuration and reporting server for your Commvault environment. Optionally a primary and Standby CommServe servees can be deployed as active-passive pair to ensure availability in the event of a hardware or software failure.

Note

IP Addresses for each CommServe must reside in the same IP subnet as your node’s Data Protection interfaces.

	Primary CommServe VM*	Standby CommServe VM
Fully Qualified Hostname (FQDN)*
IP Address*
