GBE Only

Transfers for backup, i.e. backup clip, backup train (XStream), and restore operations are
processed through the Ethernet network. However, the following operations are still
performed through the XNet: Publish, Grab, Render Playlist, and data access. That is the
reason why an SDTI connection is still required in GBE Only mode.

Combined Mode GBE + XNet

This combined mode permits the transfers through the XNet when the Gigabit network is
not available, e.g. in case of disconnection of one server from the Gigabit network.

3.1.3 Backup Channel Assignment

Seven backup channels are available. You will assign them according to your backup
needs.

Two predefined configurations are available and are described below. If the predefined
configurations do not meet your requirements, you can define a customized configuration.

The backup channel assignment will only affect the XFile and XStream backup modes.
They will not impact on the Restore, Publish and Maintenance modes.
