About Nodefd in backup.def

Hi,

I want to ask about the Nodefd {} field in the file backup.def.

1. After installation, I use backup command to export one backup.def file. The Nodefd{} is as follows:

nodefd cnnms501 {

2. Then I delete the IP address in the Nodefd field as:

nodefd cnnms501 {

  nodeAddrs = {

    {

      sourceType = domain

      source.addr =

      destination.addr =

    }

  }

  mirrorInfo.address =

  mirrorInfo.partner.nodeName =

}

3. Then I ran restore command, then the agent stopped.

4. After the agent was started, I backup the domain info again and found the backup.def was the same with the first one I backuped.

5. I learnt from the forum that the normal restore command won't let the agent restarted, so my question is: if I use the backup.def as described in 2, if there is some affect to the server?If this filed related with the NIC in this server? If I want not to let the agent restarted and not affect the function of AutoStart, could I delete the nofefd field?
