HP NC360T vs NC380T for connection of SAN iSCSI (HP 2012i DC)

Don't you think that it will be big difference in performance if I use rather than NC360T NC380T?

According to multi-vendor 'A 'Post' to help our mutual iSCSI clients '.

using VMware"I should keep simple and"in general, to use the software.

Initiator unless iSCSI initialization is formally required".

Do you have any suggestions on the switches that I will use? I was told HP - ProCurve 2510 G-24 - but not sure. People mentioned Dell 52xx series. Someone at - it (HP/Dell) use them in the workplace.

Thank you!

1006143 KB (relased 6/2008) some TOE NIC is supported, but the TOE unloading feature is not yet implemented.

That said, I think you should go with (2) 360 t (for redundancy) or just go with (2) of NC110T.

The disadvantage of SW iSCSI is that you are limited to 1 GB. / s by target IP address.  If your SAN network has several IP target, you can get > 1 GB/s using multiple LUNS, but you can't control the load balancing.  With HW iSCSI HBA (such as Qlogic) you spend about $700 / HBA and you can then download any treatment to the HBA.  You can also run it manually by LUN load balancing.

With respect to the switches, the 2510 doesn't have a very large package buffer size (384 KB).  You should consider switches with larger packages such as the HP 2900 pads, 13 MB of buffer memory.  Alternatively, choose something between the two.  The buffer space more you have the less problems you may encounter with ignored packets and flow control problems.

  • Can I use VDS with LACP to reduce on group SAN iSCSI connections?

    I'm trying to reduce the number of iSCSI connections to my EqualLogic storage group. I currently use a standard vSwitch with two ports vmk by server for SAN. Can I use a single vmk with VDS/LACP to reduce my by half by server iSCSI connections and still maintains band bandwidth/redundancy?

    I'm quite confident, it will work, but hoped for validation. Please correct me if I'm totally turned off, or if it would be not supported.

    My volumes cover several physical devices (20 paths for 7 volumes by iSCSI adapter). Can I assume that with load balancing on an OFFSET of the source and destination hash value, I would get at least some balancing between adapters?

    If you have several points of termination targets L2 - 4, Yes. For example an IP address, MAC address, unique ports or. Paths, volumes and devices are not relevant to the LACP.

    If I don't choose a LAG, I can't visualize how it would reduce my iSCSI for my storage pool connections. I'm setting targets on my Broadcom cards, the vmk connects through these cards. Is the logic that is smart enough to only connect the active paths on an adapter or another in an OFFSET? I do know that I have make sense more that I might have to play with a SHIFT on a host isolated for a bit and see exactly how it will behave.

    The adapters are more exposed. The LAG is a logical interface. Traffic can be sent or received through any physical adapter in the GAL.

    Note: I would not use an OFFSET for iSCSI on a vSphere host traffic: seriously, Stop Using Port channels for vSphere storage traffic. Wahl network

  • Should two switches for the installation of iSCSI SAN - be stacked

    I mean by "stacked" should they be hung by backplane?  Reference Dell passes, btw.

    Just two hosts connected to an iSCSI SAN.

    If the goal is to be completely redundant, your server is able to cable a physical NIC directly on each switch and your San can connect to both switches, there is no reason for the connections between these switches. Stacking of the switches can provide options for a large number of cases, but I don't think it will be here.

  • ESX 3.5 connected to SAN

    Is someone can you please inform me how I connect to SAN?

    I have VirtualCenter with two hosts running ESX 3.5 but I like to communicate with the San to the storage.

    I already plug 2 HBA cards (model: HP FC1243 4 GB). any driver software must be installed on the ESX?

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello!

    Well, there are a few steps that might involve a large number of details according to your SAN (including switches and storage devices).  Oh, and do you mean FC SAN or iSCSI?

    If you mean SAN CF, then the basic scheme is

    • Material orders (HBAS, cables, switches, storage device) which it souinds like you could have done.

    • Change the zoning.  Most people seem to agree on the areas with a single initiator, meaning that each HBA port is an area with this port HBA WWPN and the WWPN storage device it should see.

    • Create LUNS.

    • Map/mask/unmask or otherwise present LUNS to the initiator which may involve initiating creation of groups or some other combination of server WWPN to allow them to see the LUNS and also assign a LUN ID.

    • Rescan in ESX (click in the VI Client Server-> Configuration-> storage-> Rescan adapters), or the CLI with esxcfg-rescan < vmhba # >

    • Create a VMFS (on a single server) by clicking on the server-> Configuration-> storage-> Add storage and follow the instructions of the wizard

    • A new analysis on the other servers and they should all see the same VMFS

    For more information, see http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vi3_35/esx_3/r35u2/vi3_35_25_u2_san_cfg.pdf and docs of your SAN provider.

    For iSCSI, there are a few extra steps such as the establishment of a VMkernel port, allowing the initiator (for SW), adding targets that are all covered here http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vi3_35/esx_3/r35u2/vi3_35_25_u2_iscsi_san_cfg.pdf

  • How can I change my password for connection of Firefox? (Not the master password for the Firefox links saves itself)

    (1) how can I change my password for connection of Firefox? (Not my main password for things Firefox stores)
    (2) how can I change my password for connection of Thunderbird? (Not my master

    Just answer (Email removed by mod)

    You don't have to log in to Firefox. Firefox is just a browser, such as Internet Explorer. Everything you have to do is double-click it and open it. It's like Internet Explorer. If you have some sort of password extension protecting your Firefox, it's different and you need to contact the developer of the extension.

  • error cannot connect to vworkspace broker for connections. Please contact your system administrator.

    Hello

    our current facility is the next version:

    vWorkspace Version 7.5.304.547 on Windows 2008R2 Standard.

    When a new user logs in via the HTTP link brokers, they see the web portal with the logon text boxes, but when they enter their credentials, they receive the following error message:

    error cannot connect to vworkspace broker for connections. Please contact your system administrator.

    existing users can connect without problems. We have verified that the user account is not locked.

    I checked the link, however, we have much farm.

    I restarted the connection brokers and checked the event logs without finding the problem.

    Good skills in Debug. I remember that the 8000 Char limit. Well, the good news is, we have fixed this bug 4 years ago! He has been vice Id 191744

    It was fixed from 7.6.

  • Level broker for connections to windows server 2012

    Dear,

    I would like to know if there is any risk that the upgrade of the OS of the server holding the broker for connections, web access and management of the profile of windows server 2008 R2 to windows server 2012 or more to enable support of HTML5 connector? Please tell us what is the scenario for these updates.

    Concerning

    Hi Habibgha,

    Hoping to upgrade the OS on-site? It should work, but I don't know if it has been tested. Assuming that your infrastructure servers are virtualized, perhaps you could take a snapshot or clone this virtual machine and try in a lab environment?

    Or you can work on a step-by-step approach, the first stage being, if your current farm is 8.0.1 you can upgrade all roles on your current server on 2008 R2 for vWorkspace 8.5, then build a new VM with 2012 R2 and install IIS and access to the Web of vWorkpace role. Create a new vWorkspace site web access on the new server just for the connector of HTML5.

    I hope that helps!

    Thanks, Sam

  • Mobile Lightroom. Stuck with "Waiting for Connection".

    Mobile of Lightroom cannot synchronize because "waiting for connection" status. Was working fine before. Also cannot synchronize with LR Mobile in the Collections switches - they used to work very well.  What's Adobe up? Need a fix.

    Problem fixed (maybe).  I disconnected LR-Mobile on iPad, then logged on. Initially, it looked like LR - M in lost iPad. Then I closed the application and reopened. All the images previously synchronized and collections are back. Then I opened LR on my iMac and to my surprise, the "waiting for connection" had disappeared. It was replaced by "sync 22 photos. Of course, all seems good now. Don't know if this will work for everyone, but fingers crossed it stays fixed.

  • Waiting for connection during vMotion

    Problem is when I have a Windows VM running, about 78% of vMotion

    I get a black screen with the message "waiting for connection" and wheels that

    does the trick for about 5-10 seconds until the display returns and vMotion

    complete.

    The environment is a configuration of network isolated for demo

    purposes only. Setup has two identical Dell R710 as hosts and Dell

    ISCSI EqualLogic PS5000 storage. Network configuration is NIC 1 = mgt; NIC2 = network

    traffic; NIC3 is iSCSI to nothing verified EqualLogic-kernel port.; NIC4 = vMotion-kernel

    verified port with vMotion. All are connected to a single GigE of D-Link switch

    with CAT6 cables. There is only one active machine, one being migrated through

    vMotion. I can migrate the virtual computer when it is not running smoothly.

    We know that the environment is not ideal, but it should work. He

    is hard to believe that the network configuration would be so saturated that it

    wait times.

    Any ideas to get this to work would be welcome.
