Host profiles breaks iSCSI configuration

I have determined that host profiles do not support configuring a vSS properly for jumbo frame support for iSCSI.

The way host profiles work when they are applied is that they blow away any existing switches and then re-set's them up, problem with the way it does it is that it does not support all functionality required. Namely Jumbo frames.

Can I get my understanding confirmed (Host profiles are not fully baked) and ask the following question.

Is it possible to tell a host profile to skip configuring certain items, like a vSS? From my review it appears that once the host profile has been created from a sample host you can't tell it NOT to implement certain parts of it.

If you found this at all helpful please award points by using the correct or helpful buttons! Thanks!

Correct - at this time Host Profiles are not fully baked.
