Thanks for the comments. However I am not in the position to upgrade so I get vDS now and I have understood that I cannot use LACP unless I use vDS. I read the links to articles for HP and Cisco...

ESXi has native teaming built-in and there is nothing else you need to do. Use of a LAG is not necessary if you want connection sharing and failover abilities.

It's basically not a limitation on the hardware switches, but in the software, so that other switches won't help.Anyway, using multiple uplinks on a Standard vSwitch with the default policy does a...

Really, so I don't need to do anything on the switch side, just connect the ESXi teamed NICs to ordinary switch ports and there will be no looping problems or the like...? That was really good news for...

Yes, that's correct. ESXi will not create loops naturally regardless of the teaming configuration.

Great. Thanks for that confirmation. However do I really get augmented bandwidth benefit with this solution (since it is 'active' only from one side of the link) or does this solution only give me...

With the default configuration the VMs are distributed across all uplinks (i.e. no aggregation in any way). This means that multiple uplinks are active, and in case of an uplink failure, the VMs...

hi,i like to know if VMs are connected to vmkernel vlan and to vlan on where is i/o data traffic.so each VM connect to 2 vlans.
View ArticleRe: vlan
vmkernel ports are used exclusively for host managment traffic, your VMs vmnic should be connected to a different portgroup/vlan. The VM will only be accessible on whichever portgroup you add it to

hi,every VM is connectet to vmkernel vland and data traffic vlan if i have vmkernel and i/o data traffic?
View ArticleRe: vlan
Only if you add 2 vmnics to your VM, one of the vmk port group and another on the "data" port group

if i have only a vmnic in vm that connect to data port group,then is not possible to use vmotion on this vm.right?
View ArticleRe: vlan
As long as you have vMotion configured on your hosts and the hosts your moving VMs between are compatible then it will work. You do not need a vMotion vmnic on each VM VMware Knowledge Base

i see that every vm will have only an vmnic and vmkernel is used on host by vmostion or iscsi,nfs -there is no need of other vmnic in vm.right?i think that nic bonding is better to have on physical...
