Hello,
First of all, apologies for my non fluent English :-s
I would like to implement software iSCSI, VMNetwork and VMotion on my personnal lab. I have two physical OpenMediaVault servers and two ESXi hypervisors. Each server has 6 NICs.
For the moment I'm not decided about which sould be the best way to configure my VSwitches on ESXi. I think about two configurations :
1) An unique VSwitch for iSCSI, VMNetwork and VMotion traffic with separated VLANs using the whole network cards
2) 1 VSwitch for iSCSI, another for VMNetwork and a last one with VMotion using 2 NICs per virtual switch.
Each solution seems to be functionnal, but I for HA reasons I think first solution should be better, but I'm not sure that using only 1 VSwitch for all network types should be the best way
What do you think about this ?
