currently we do not support vasa/vvol. maybe in the longer term.

current support for vmware api is basic vaai /ats.

Thank for the answer,

One question I have about networking.

I have two 10GB nics, I have them in bond, however there are vlans on the same nics, can I apply mutiple vlan/ips on the bonded nics.

E.g.
bond0 = nic1 + nic2
bond0:0 - vlan1 = 10.1.0.0/24
bond0:1 - vlan2 = 10.2.0.0/24

 

Thanks

you can have more than one subnet per nic  or in case of bonding, per bond

so you first create the bond , then in the following tab you map the subnet(s) to the bond you created. The subnet mapping will be at the bond level, so all nics making up the bond will also have the same mapping.

edit: In PetaSAN we do not separate subnets into separate vlans (with different vlan ids), all subnets are created on the default vlan.

Sounds good,

I will test it out and let you know.

 

Thanks again

One more thing: in PetaSAN we do not separate subnets into separate vlans (with different vlan ids), all subnets are created on the default vlan.
