MPIO
Posted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:24 am
Hello,
are considering the following scenario.
One iStorage server with two or more network cards, each connection into another switch and a server with similar configuration.
EX
iStorage Server iSCSI Target
------------------------
NIC 1: 192.168.1.11/24 <-> SW1
NIC 2: 192.168.2.11/24 <-> SW2
server iSCSI Initiator
------------------------
NIC 1: 192:168:1.12 / 24 <-> SW1
NIC 2: 192.168.2.12/24 <-> SW2
I need to set up MPIO, so as to increase the throughput and reliability combined.
Unfortunately I never found a document on this scenario. In all bandaged up with only one network card on one server iStorage.
Thank you for any insights.
