hi guys
As I understand here the recommendation is to have vmotion and management traffic on different VLANs so that means different gateways
http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2011/03/22/esxi-management-network-resiliency/
I've created VLAN 25 for management Traffic and gateway 10.10.25.1
and VLAN 28 for Vmotion gateway 10.10.28.1
but how so I manage to get this working with tw2 different gateways? since there's only one vkernel default gateway.
thanks a lot
You don't use a gateway for the vMotion subnet. Practically vMotion traffic should not be routed so you don't need a gateway. When you configure the VMkernel port for vMotion it will show the default gateway for the other subnet. You can just ignore that.
