Hi Team,
I'm looking for some quick advice on how to set up my new vSphere 7 environment. I'm using Synergy Frames, 3PAR arrays and iSCSI+FC just as a little background.
Networking = I have six NICs and I'm planning on three vSwitches. vSwitch1 for Mgt and vMotion (two nics, first NIC dedicated mgt failover vMotion and vice versa). vSwitch2 for Prod (two nics). vSwitch3 for iSCSI (two nics). Does this look right?
Storage = I want to use VVOLS and I've never used them before. What I want to know is how should I set up the storage for my clusters? Don't you need two datastors for heartbeating? How would I set that up? Do I just setup two datastors that will be mostly unused and then have VVOLs for all my VMs?
Any advice would be appreciated.
