Best design for the use of 8 physical network interface cards on a 5.1 ESXi host

I have 8 physical network cards to work with on and 5.1 ESXi host using Enterprise Plus license.  I need to repair the following traffic:

Management traffic

vMotion traffic

Virtual machine traffic (probably 2 natachasery will suffice for this)

NFS traffic

Won't fault tolerance.  Natachasery-how much should I dedicate to NFS, vMotion, and traffic management?  What failover policy I should use (active / active) (active / standby) for each?

It is business more licensing and vSphere distributed switches are used.

Thank you

Yes, I would put the backup in the switch as well as management traffic and vMotion is they use vSS or vDS. The other option would be to reduce your vDS for NFS traffic of 4 natachasery 2 natachasery and then or to add to the existing vDS that contains management and vMotion VM traffic to add it extra bandwidth or create a new vDS with these 2 natachasery. But at the point of my original thought around creating a vDS is based on all of my bandwidth throwing together and then cut it but I want it and do not have to trade around natachasery after the fact. But there are so many different ways to achieve that is the fun part.

  • vSpere 5 Networking of best practices for the use of 4 to 1 GB NIC?

    Hello

    I'm looking for a networking of best practices for the use of 4-1 GB NIC with vSphere 5. I know there are a lot of good practice using 10 GB, but our current config does support only 1 GB. I need to include the management, vMotion, Virtual Machine (VM) and iSCSi. If there are others you would recommend, please let me know.

    I found a diagram that resembles what I need, but it's for 10 GB. I think it works...

    vSphere 5 - 10GbE SegmentedNetworks Ent Design v0_4.jpg(I had this pattern HERE - rights go to Paul Kelly)

    My next question is how much of a traffic load is each object take through the network, percentage wise?

    For example, 'Management' is very small and the only time where it is in use is during the installation of the agent. Then it uses 70%.

    I need the percentage of bandwidth, if possible.

    If anyone out there can help me, that would be so awesome.

    Thank you!

    -Erich

    Without knowing your environment, it would be impossible to give you an idea of the uses of bandwidth.

    That said if you had about 10-15 virtual machines per host with this configuration, you should be fine.

  • Best practices for the use of reserved words

    Hello
    What is the best practice for the use of the reserved words as column names.
    For example if I insisted on the use of the word to a column name comment as follows:

    CREATE TABLE...
    VARCHAR2 (4000) "COMMENT."
    ...

    What is the impact on the track I could expect and what problems should I be informed when doing something like that?

    Thank you
    Ben

    The best practice is NOT to use reserved words anywhere.
    Developers are human beings human. Humans have their moments to forget things.
    They will not forget to use the "", or you can force it to use the "' everywhere.

  • Designate the VLAN for the clones linked on a network interface

    Hi all

    I do a view pilot program using 4.6 and related clones. I have a server (small pilot) to all (vcenter, connect to the server, clients). I have configured an interface on the server as a TRUNK so I can have desktop VMs on different VLANS. How to configure view (or the desktop image base) to clients pools on the VLANs that I would like on?

    For example, computer office-pool1 I want to VLAN 10, office-pool2 I VLAN 11.

    Base Office I created, I put the VLAN 10, but the VMs system (created from the replica) begin on VLAN 11.

    Thank you

    Mike

    You must create groups of ports for each VLAN.  Then go to your parent image, change the nic for the port group you just created and to recompose.

  • Best practices for the use of the DPS and cloud logins creative?

    Hi-

    I did have a chance to respond to my question via Google... If there was a previous topic posted on the forum about it, my apologies.

    We users of DPS Pro for several years now, and in the early stages of the evolution of our software to cloud creative teams. We always use the Pro DPS account to produce a monthly magazine for iPads, Android and Amazon devices, but I'm trying to understand how our connection CC and 3 different connections rendition DPS will play together.

    Right now, we're on CS5.5, so when we publish to different renditions, we record and off the Folio Builder when we need to access each account:

    [email protected]

    [email protected]

    [email protected]

    Once we move to CC, I'll be connected to this account (for me, there [email protected])-who is also mentioned as having access administrator and DPS App Builder in the dashboard of the Administration of our account Pro DPS. DPS account

    Is there a way to get my CC/DPS [email protected] connection to allow me to create renditions in the three accounts - magazine, magazine_droid, magazine_amazon - or I have to log in and out of the Folio Builder in InDesign CC to create these "renditions", as we do in CS5.5?

    And if it affects my CC updates somehow to log in and out of all these accounts?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

  • What is the best practice for the double management interfaces?

    Hello community!

    I'm upgrading to a few host ESX to ESXi 4.1U1 4.0 in the coming weeks. My question is about how to configure the management networks. Obviously in ESX 4.0 Classic I have a Service Console port (on vSwitch0) group and a group of ports VMkernel (also on vSwitch0) which provides my host with SC and vmotion capabilities, as we all know. Note: my vSwitch0 has two vmnic attached to it, is pending and is active. That's just how we have our double installation of switches, so it must be active / standby.

    I got to thinking (book the great from HA and DRS deepdive Duncap Epping and Frank Denneman), that I should consider carefully when my network mangement I improve these hosts to ESXi 4.1 - which of course done away with the Service Console and use the vmkernel instead.

    The question is, in which best practices and account with my setup: I have two vmkernel ports? If so, how should I configure each for traffic management and vmotion vmkernel?

    I think it will be a good discussion to have.

    Thank you all,

    Matt

    The NIC vSwitch0 value active/active, the vswif (and future vmkernel management) team of NIC Active vmnic6 and vmnic1 ensures and leaves the vMotion vmkernel NIC team as is.

    This will allow you to use two physical network interface cards at the same time while having a failover plan and keep your physically separate management and vMotion traffic.

    In the end:

    vSwitch: vmnic1 vmnic6 active, active.

    VMK (Mgt): active eve of vmnic1 vmnic6.

    VMK (vMotion): active standby, vmnic6 vmnic1.

  • DPS: Judge to use the parameter Raster or vector in the States of the objects when the majority of the page is a photo. What is the best setting for the overall performance?

    I am trying to decide whether to use the parameter Raster or vector in the States of the object when the majority of the screen is a picture (with a modest but important legend for children to read). The legend certainly makes it look more net as vector. But does the photo! The raster setting seems to make the lower-res images in comparison. In my first edition of my application, I thought that raster would be the best setting when the photo was the subject dominating the page. But now, after seeing how strong he looks like vector, (but with almost a refresh of the unacceptable time. Perhaps better on the latest iPad. Most of my readers/students in class will use iPad 2 s, which has a slower processor). I wonder if I should go through the trouble of changing States of photo objects that have the type as well to the vector. It doesn't seem to be as sensitive to a re - draw on the iPad 2 (non-retine)

    Is Filesize hit if I make about 1200 on these objects range from Raster to vector? (It is a huge, highly interactive history book, so I'm curious if acutally go to vector on these photos would reduce the size of the file) What is the best setting for the overall performance?

    I see the freeks screen outside for a bit if you try to pinch and zoom in a vector object (photo) vs raster. Which is disappointing. Does slow down load time/refreshment in frame, which is a little less. I also found that the drop shadows really bad that redraws effect in vector, almost vibrating in a slide show, for example. Thus, in cases where I need shadows, I'm sticking with Raster.

    All tips go ahead?

  • Best settings for the analysis of revenues

    I just bought a HP Officejet 6600 A-I-O. I was looking for a device scan my boxes of documents, so I can unclutter my home office. I would also like to analyze the revenue. I considered the famous 'neat Scanner", but I hesitated to the price tag of $400.

    My question: what are the best settings for the HP scanning application when I'm scanning received? What is the difference between PDF and PDF searchable? IsTIFF a better choice than PDF? Use "Generalist" or something else? Recipes do not need large files high resolution, of course.

    Can someone point me to a guide that explains the different parameters available with the HP Scan application, please. Thank you!

    Hi Caesar3,

    In a regular PDF document, the text looks more like a picture of the text.  We can see it, but the file does not contain the words.

    In an indexed PDF, text is stored as text, so it can be searched.

    http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-create-a-searchable-PDF-file

    When you scan receipts, 200 or 300 dpi should be fine.  If you plan to print the stored version receive 300 dpi would work well.

    I recommend PDF more TIFF.  TIFF files can store pages or multiple images in a single file, but access to additional pages is a bit awkward.  Generally, the file size is much smaller with PDF or TIFF.

    The site http://www.scantips.com/ is a good resource.  This is a Web site not HP, but it does not scan HP.

  • Can we ignore alarm for the use of the disc on the disc?

    Hello

    There is a data store of close to 2 TB, assigned to a cluster of servers ESXi 5.

    We performed P2V to a number of physical hosts and now only get about 80 GB of free space left.  And we get an alarm for the use of the disc on the disc.

    We wonder if it will be a problem to keep only 80 GB of free space on the disk (we will not add another VM in this datatsore more in the future).

    Your opinion is requested.

    Thank you

    Yes. Veeam - as well as other applications of image - based backup creates a temporary while backup it VMs. depending on the activity of the drive of the guest during this time the snapshot could develop and fill the instant capture data store. More you customers backup simultaneously more risk. Unfortunately there is no rule on the amount of space free disk is needed, but the 80 GB seem to be really low. With a 2 TB data store, I suggest that book you at least 10% (preferably more) for snapshots.

    In addition to this, you need to monitor the disk space on a case where something goes wrong with a backup and snapshot cannot be cleaned automatically!
