Hi all,
i'm planing a new infrastructure with Open-e as SAN Backend and PVE als virtualization hosts. 1GB Ethernet is to slow, so instead of using 10GbE i ask myself if Link Aggregation (with 4 Ports for example) would increase the throughput to my SAN. Wikipedia says, LACP balances load by mac-addresses -> connections initiated with the same mac use only one NIC. If i create 10 VMs on my PVE-Node, and every Node has a iscsi disk, all iscsi commands will send by my PVE-Node, right? So, all 10 Nodes uses only one NIC to communicate with the SAN? That would be a huge Problem. Any Hints for me?
Thank you!
