I posted this same question and it was moved to ignite, but no 1 answered. Apologies in advance, but any input?
I want to move all my clients on a backup-network for my ignite backups.
For ignites, I currently have IP connection working to the clients over the system IP. my make_net_recovery -s is pointing to the ignite servers backup network IP, but when I look at
$ ll /var/opt/ignite/clients
on my ignite server, I see many clients with links to their system IPs.
Is all I have to do is
unlink "client"
mv "OLD MAC" "NEW MAC"
ln -s NEWMAC "existing client"
to force the client to send its data across this backup IP network?
thank u!

Check out this IgniteUX guide.
http://docs.hp.com/en/5992-5230/5992-5230.pdf
In addition to adjusting the MAC links on the server, you have to adjust the bootptab file on the server and verify that the clients can use the backup network interface.
In the guide above the EFI (itanium) servers have the option for which LAN interface to use for booting but the PA-RISC servers do not. You need to test if a PA-RISC server will use the appropriate interface to boot.
The bootp protocol is broadcast based so the question is will the client broadcast on all its LAN interfaces to find the server?
