Scenario 5 – VLAN Tagging (802.1Q) with a Shared Uplink Set (SUS) with Link Aggregation using LACP (802.3ad) –
VMware ESX 69
Figure 67 – To speed VMotion events and to ensure that ALL VMotion traffic between servers
within the enclosure is contained on the same VC module, on each server edit the VMotion
vSwitch properties and move one of the Adapters to Standby.
Note: By ensuring that ALL servers within an enclosure use the SAME NIC, which in turn would be
connected to the SAME I/O Bay, we can ensure that ALL VMotion traffic will occur on the same
Virtual Connect module.
