Private metadata network

Hi all,

A previous administrator intended to set up a private metadata network  
for our Xsan setup, but never got around to it. It was a small setup  
back then, so it wasn't a big deal.

I'd like to sort this out, and have a dumb gigabit switch for the  
purpose.

How do you go about switching the clients and MDCs over to a private  
network? I take it that it's as simple as setting the second ethernet  
interface on all the machines to have a static IP in one of the  
private ranges, and then using Xsan Admin on each machine to flip it  
over to using the second interface.

Is there anything I need to watch out for?

I'm running Xsan 1.4.2.

Andy.
