New 4.1 networking configuration

I am installing new 4.1 servers.  I have 12 network ports on 3 cards (built in and 2 intel cards).  I am thinking of having 4 vSwitches with 3nic's per switch, one for management, vm network access, nfs\iscsi, and one for vmotion.  I am planning on creating vlans for the nfs/iscsi, and the vmotion networks.  The vm network access and management will be on the regular local network.

1. Does this look correct?

2. Do I need to set any link agragation on the physical hp switch to each esx vswitch? or just having them in a seperate vlan with nic teaming enabled on esx be fine?

Thanks

Nick
