How many cards network vmotion

• Best practices... How many cards?

  Hey guys,.

  We are currently adding 2 new hosts (HP BL460c G8) to our cluster 4 hosts (HP BL460c G7).  Guests have the following configurations:

  -12 cores (2 x Intel Xeon 6 cores)

  -192 GB memory (G8 have 256 GB)

  -NIC 6 (2 + 4 with mezzanine)

  -2 x 146 GB mirror for OS

  -2 FC HBA

  I just upgraded vCenter and vSphere Update Manager to the latest version (5.1 U1).  We performed an average of 40 to 60 machines virtual host and never had a problem... CPU is always about 15 to 20 percent and memory around 50-60%.  Exchange and SQL are on physical servers.

  We use 4 NICs for VM traffic (4 Active VM (with 3 network interface cards) + 2 Exchange trade VMkernel (1 + 1 standby active network card) and 2 NICs for V-Motion and FT.)

  Recently asked me to see if we could remove 2 switches (Cisco 3020) between the speaker and have a viable environment with only 4 network cards.  The network guys tell me that traffic is really not so bad on 3020 s... We have occasional peaks but average traffic of the past year is generally quite low.  It comes with switches and nic 1 GB.

  I was thinking about the following config if we go up to 4 network cards:

  -2 active network for VM traffic maps (ideally an edge / one on the mezzanine)

  -1 map of active network for vMotion / Mgt of traffic with the other network adapter (used for FT) in standby mode

  -1 map of active network for FT / Mgt of traffic with the other network adapter (used for vMotion) in standby mode

  Am I missing something?  To be honest... I prefer to keep the 6 switches/NIC, thinking we're going to have traffic for her in the future but the management here wants to know if it is feasible with only 4 at the moment.

  Thanks in advance.

  So, you have certain requirements with forced here. The questions are to make us think, not necessarily to have a definitive answer.

  Management asked if a NIC (4) configuration is possible. So, let's look at the types of traffic, assuming that the redundancy is a requirement.

  Types of required traffic:

  • MGMT (VMkernel)
  • vMotion (VMkernel)
  • VM (Virtual Machine) - y (2) NICs required for bandwidth? If so, you might consider that NIC (3) will be necessary for redundant N + 1 on a NIC level. 10GbE starts to make a lot of sense in this scenario.

  Types of traffic in option:

  • Based on your statement in this thread, FT is not used yet. What is a bond? If this isn't the case, I'd take it off the table for this decision as long as the decision to use FT affects more than the NIC number. It affects the master VM, use of resources, backup schedule, etc.

  From the little information listed here, I agree with the proposed plan of NIC if 4 cards network is possible based on the investigation. (Of course many NICs gives more flexibility. 10GbE gives you more options.)

  VMNIC numbers here are just placeholders.

  • MGMT (active VMNIC0 / VMNIC1 sleep)
  • vMotion (active VMNIC1 / VMNIC0 sleep)
  • VM (VMNIC2 Active / Active VMNIC3)

  In addition, you had (4) hosts and you add (2). Your cluster increased only 50%. How many times do you get? Expect more work load in the next 6 to 12 months? I would say that you can certainly make the arguments for Enterprise more than license for a switching distributed alone, without forgetting the other features that you will receive.

  I hope this helps.

  Don't forget to mark this "correct" answer or 'useful', if you found it useful (you'll also points).

• How many cards to the Service Console

  I hope that my question is not too noob like... Can someone tell me what the rule of thumb is for network cards how much should I use for the service console? Thanks in advance.

  I use two and set an active and a standby adapter. In addition, if you can balance between edge and PCI

• How many switches must be configured and min no network interface cards?

  Hello

  We will implement the ESXi5.0.

  We would like to know if we use different ports for network management and vMotion groups?  It seems that two of them use the same (different from ESX 4) IP address.

  In addition, my supervisor would like to know what is the minimum number of network interface cards to use (because the server has no slot PCIe)?

  Your opinion is requested.

  Thank you

  Since we implement VLANS on our site and based on the documentation, ESXi 5 gets only 1 battery IP, wonder what is the best way to cope.

  It is true that ESXi has that one battery IP, which is very good compared to the other two in ESX (Linux in the Service Console and the Vmkernel). However, we have only an IP stack means that it is the same driver tcp/ip, but does not mean that we cannot have multiple IP addresses.

  For example, you can create a Vmkernel how many interfaces you want and assign different IP addresses, which could be on the same network or on different.

  Even if you don't have a VLAN in your environment I would still recommend using another IP network for vMotion for your management. This will make the two a little more 'best practice', easier to different and you would be good too preperred if you implement VLANs in the future.

• SxS Pro + and AXSM cards | How many times can be re-writings?

  It would be interesting to know how many times it is save to use the same SxS Pro + and cards AXSM for productions? The two are quite expensive and should last a while. How many times can I use the same cards and remove it, the Formate and re - write them? Is there a deadline or expiration date?

  When registered at full capacity once a day, SxS Pro cards + can continue to be used for about five years.

  What is the same thing for AXSM?

  See you soon.

  Request of NVIDIA or the manufacturer of the card.

  IF it is the card you need the info- http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-750-ti/specifications

  But it seems that some do support 3 - http://www.evga.com/Products/Specs/GPU.aspx?pn=70B14BA6-5853-4A65-AACF-CFF61F466D82

• How many network adapters I - ESXi 4.1 with iSCSI

  I was wondering if someone could help me give a sense the news I read on # NIC for ESXi 4.1.  I came across the following article, but I'm not sure I understand all parts of traffic that he speaks:

  http://livingonthecloud.blogspot.com/2009/09/ESXi-networking-best-practices.html

  At the moment I have 6 cards 1 GB on each of my 3 servers.  I connect to my SAN via iSCSI, so I know I'm going to need at least 2 of these network adapters for that traffic. I know I'll need at least 2 NICs for connection between my ESXi server and my switch to the network of the VM.  What I don't understand is what I really need for the VMKernel FT, VMkernal Vmotion and VMKernal the Network Administration.  I do not plan on using Vmotion very often at all, so I'm not concerned about its impact on my network.

  Any advice?  I need to replace my double NICs with Quad NIC card or is it exaggerated?

  The management doesn't have a dedicated network card. It can share the network with virtual machines cards.

  In this case the following configuration would be interesting:

  vSwitch0: (3 NIC uplinks) (assuming vmnic0, vmnic1 vmnic2)

  Port group 1 - networking (vmnic0 and vmnic1-> active vmnic2,-> stand-by)

  Port group 2 - network of the VM (vmnic0 and vmnic1-> active vmnic2,-> stand-by)

  Port 3 - VM Network Group (vmnic0 and vmnic1-> stand-by, vmnic2-> active)-for the "Pervasive SQL.

  vSwitch1: (1 NIC/uplink)

  Port group 1 - VMkernel for vMotion on a separate network (192.168.x.x)

  vSwitch2: (2 cards network/links rising)

  configuration by following the best practices of your iSCSI storage provider

  In this way the "Pervasive SQL" would have a dedicated NIC (vmnic2) and may switch to another NETWORK card in the event of disruption of the network.

• How many concurrent users on a FMS server?

  We want to broadcast direct meetings with the majority of users access to our inTRAnet. 320 x 240, 30 fps, dual 2.8 GHz, 4 GB server of widows. Anyone with a similar setup to use EGIA service 200 or 500 concurrent users? We have two campuses and I need to know if I need spec a second server if we get above a certain number. How many simultaneous users can I supprot with the above configuration? Thank you
  
  

  FMS should be able to manage your 500 customers without a problem by using the configuration you mentioned (some of my apps regularly see many times more than that on a single server). I use a slightly beefier processor in my boxes... quad core Kentsfield Xeon / 4 GB ram.

  That said, also, make sure you have enough flow to your NETWORK card to carry the traffic. To 500 concurrent clients, a current of low-bandwidth of 300 Kbps puts you on point 150Mbps, so you'll need to run the numbers before commit you to a single network is used for in the case where you can't have enough juice for one box.

• Satellite 3000 - x 4: this model has how many memory slots?

  Hello

  I have a question on this model of Toshiba Satellite 3000 - x 4 PS301E - 000 K 8 - EN I took the chassis on this model today to do a repair for someone in my family work. When I took the VGA card, I discovered what looked like an another memory location.
  So my question is how many slots memory model there?

  I read online and I checked the profile page and they all point to this model with two memory locations.
  If this is the case then what is this thing that resembled a memory slot under the vga card?
  I had to buy another piece of RAM for this model today make three, but I decided on a little hand to check it out first.

  There are already two sticks of laptop memory already, 512 MB, and 128 MB. This model can take up to 1 GB.
  So, what do you think is there memory locations two or three on this model?

  Thank you

• Too many cards

  When I try to open a link to a Web site when using the touchpad, I get a message that says 'too many cards' what this means and how can I solve this problem

  Hi, you will find some tips below.

  Their there are several options:

  1 simply hold down the OK button for a few seconds.

  2. the error 'too many cards' historically means that your device has too many open applications and that it is running out of RAM. It could be solved by closing some applications and try again. Turn off and turn on again also clears the memory.

  "To completely close an application, drag the map to the bottom of the screen and release. The card is expected to rebound upward and on the top of the screen. »

  Otherwise, the "normal way" to close the application in standby mode and can continue to use memory. After awhile of just applications of swipping closing upward, without having to restart the Tablet/phone, could lead to continue to burn the memory until you get the "too many cards" error.

  It will be useful.

  Thank you
