vMotion and EtherChannel, an overview of the load-balancing policies stack ...
After posting the article “Choose link aggregation over Multi-NIC vMotion” I received a couple of similar questions. Pierre-Louis left a comment that covers most of the questions. Let me use this as an example and clarify how vMotion traffic flows through the stack of multiple load balancing algorithms and policies: A question relating to Lee’s post. Is there any sense to you to use two uplinks bundled in an aggregate (LAG) with Multi-NIC vMotion to give on one hand more throughput to vMotion traffic and on the other hand dynamic protocol-driven mechanisms (either forced or LACP with stuff like Nexus1Kv or DVS 5.1)?
