Network for NFS
Hello
I have infrastructure as follows;
2 welcome each containing 6 1Gig speed NIC each.
A NAS storage with 4 NIC
Two L2 Switches (managed HP).
Planning to run it by the best recommendations and requirements, so that there should not be a SPOF any level.
So keeping this in mind, we have designed to use ports on each server as follows:
2 for the NFS storage, 2 for Production management and 2 others for vMotion on each server.
A cable from each port configured for respective roles goes uplink switch1 and switch2, so if a switch goes down we still have the other switch support.
Separated VLAN is configured by the switch to different types of traffic.
My question as below;
Should I team two ports on each vSS.If so that what should be the parameters for NETWORK adapters for the production, storage, and vMotion network grouping (keeping in mind cables going to switch uplink separated).
Should I keep adapter in active-standby or active-active mode.
I didn't think any specific settings to link pass that one cable by a single port is to go there and I don't have the choice of the channel of the ether or LACP.
In addition, vmware license is essential and having therefore no possibility to use dynamic switches.
Consider using 5.5.0.
Also do you propose to use frames as well in the present.
Kind regards
Sushil
Hello
I suggest always you put management and vMotion on the same set of natachasery management and workloads. It makes no difference where they are subnet a perspective. I also suggest to read the following:
- The great debate VSwitch (old writings but still VERY there, let not the age fool you on this one)
- VMware Virtual networking concepts
- Networking for administrators of virtualization
Who should you get.
natachasery have no IP address in a vSphere environment, they act as a link between a physical and virtual switch. According to the way which you the trunk your VLAN Trunk ends pSwitch (external switch tagging) or the virtual switch (switch virtual tagging). Most people master their VLAN to the virtual switch.
You want something like the following:
pSwitch <->pNIC0 <->[ <->Portgroup vSwitch0] <->management (subnet1)
pSwitch <->pNIC1 <->[ <->Portgroup vSwitch0] <->vMotion (subnet2)
When switching between pNIC0 and pNIC1 management and vMotion end up on the same bear but when normally run that they remain separated. It is the recommended method. In this case you would master the VLAN to the vSwitch. I know some people who just do not use VLANs, but who use only separate subnets and it works as well.
pSwitch <->pNIC2/pNIC3 <-> <->Portgroup vSwitch1 (s) <->of workloads (subnet1)
If you use VLANs (except for vMotion) you're trunking to vSwitch1 (virtual switch tagging). If subnet1 is on the same vSwitch and the trunk is correct via pSwitch ports so he can talk to management on vSwitch0 effortlessly. Switches know how to route traffic to VLAN.
pSwitch <->pNIC4/pNIC5 <->vSwitch2 <->Portgroup <->NFS (subnet3)
Here we link pNIC4 and pNIC5 together or use them as a pair of failover for NFS on its own subnet / VLAN itself. This VLAN can end the pSwitch if you wish or terminate once again to the vSwitch.
In this configuration you have 3 VLAN and 3 subnets (subnets use by VLAN are also recommended)... for example:
VLAN100-> subnet1-> workload management->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->
VLAN200->-> vMOtion subnet2
VLAN300->-> NFS subnet3
Let the pSwitches any 'movement' of traffic for each VLAN. You need only a routing device if you want TO cross borders VLAN and there is absolutely no need to do it in this configuration.
Best regards

What makes a projector to qualify as a network for Windows 7 projector?
Hello
I am looking to buy a projector wifi enabled to connect wireless to my PC to Windows 7 Desktop, this one for example.
Windows 7 has a wizard called "connect to a network projector. Exactly what does a projector to qualify as a network for Windows 7 projector? What kind of specification should I look for? With my computer and the projector in my home network would be sufficient?
All other pointers to make a connection without wire of any kind are welcome. I already looked in Miracast and Intel WiDi and do not think that my PC meets the hardware requirements.
Hello
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
- Have you contacted the manufacturer of the projector for the best option for Windows 7?
Ideally, projector manufacturers will be able to answer this question on Wi - Fi enabled projector that will be connected wirelessly with Windows 7. Therefore, I would ask you to please contact the manufacturer of the projector.
Microsoft had really comfort in mind when it added such a simple method to display the content on a projector. Once connected to a projector, simply press the Windows key + P to select one of four connection options.
Connect a projector to a Windows 7 computer is fairly simple once you know how. With the help of the four options, you can configure a custom view that meets your personal needs.
I would ask to refer to the article below for more information.

What "unmapped user access" for NFS share in Windows Server 2008 R2?
In the beginning, I followed this Youtube video to set up an NFS share in Windows Server 2008 R2:
https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=BQ8Q_vsiksg
Please note that the default option to allow to access Unix unmapped user is not changed (to about 1 min 57 sec).
Then I found another article at http://www.vmwarearena.com/2012/07/create-nfs-datastore-for-esx-in-windows.html
But in this article, I like to select allow anonymous access (instead of allow access Unix unmapped user).
So who is correct? Or both are correct (which means that this 'unmapped user access' is not serious)?
And why should we have to allow root access (in the NFS share permissions dialog box)? What a security risk?
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried to run through the steps taken from the blog of VMware?
Also, there are 3 KB articles to know in case of potential problems

To share the folder of Windows for NFS:
- Right click on the local folder you want to share via NFS.
- Click NFS share.
- Type the name for the share. For example, NFS-VMFS01.
- Delete to allow anonymous access.
- Click on permissions.
- Change the type of access in reading + writing and select allow root Access.
