ESXi 6.5 U2 : Network Cards Teaming : Fail Over

[CERKYR]

Hello,

Is it possible inside the vsphere to build a "network cards teaming" to be sure that the "fail over" is available ?

In fact, I build :

1 >>> Port Group : VLAN_1
2 >>> VSWITCH : vswitch_1 : associated with the VLAN_1

3 >>> Network cards : 2 network cards associated witht the vwitch_1 : NIC2 and NIC6

Regards,

Yes, that's exactly how it is done.

Make sure that the Teaming and Failover policy is configured correctly on the vSwitch (in this case it's the default setting), and that the port group is configured to inherit the settings from the vSwitch.

Yes, the PORT GROUP can inherit the configuration from the vswitch.

But, I don't see any field like teaming and failover Inside the vswitch.
And also, I don't make any change on the default parameters.

Sorry, it's now called "NIC teaming" in the vSwitch settings.

Bonjour André,

Je ne sais pas si la communauté française pour VMware dispose de pages spécifiques, comme cela est le cas sur les Microsoft Technet.
Cdlt,

Malheureusement, je ne parle pas français très bien.

But yes, there are VMTN Global Forums for several languages, including French.

Note however, that you may get more attention with posting in the "regular" communities.

PS: The global formus can also be accessed directly from the globe icon.
