Hello,
I have nodes with four 10 Gb interfaces (eth2, eth3, eth4, eth5): two dedicated to storage VLAN for iSCSI (eth3, eth5) and two connected to the default LAN (eth2, eth4). Is it better to use all separated NICS, or to create two bonds, one for the storage VLAN and one with the two NICS on the LAN, with all the services (management, backend, NFS, CIFS) on it ?
Currently they are separated: backend is on one NIC (eth4) and mgmt+CIFS+NFS on the second one (eth2).
Thanks and bye. Ste

The recommendation is to use unbonded NICs for iSCSI for MPIO and have the rest: backend and other services on bond(s)
