Hello all.

I'm quite sure I'm not the only one who wants to know 8)

Let's consider a "standard" vmware essentials deployment:
  • 3 servers
  • 2 NICs for "storage" in each server
  • 2 switches for "storage"
  • DSS v6 (might be in failover setup)


Should we go with NFS (and bonding) or iSCSI (and MPIO)?

Same question goes if there's already an iSCSI SAN (Equallogic) in the setup: should we setup the additionnal DSS storage box(es) using iSCSI? Or should we add additionnal NICs in the server, another VLAN on the storage switches and go for NFS?
