Multiple vMotion vmk using Nexus 1000v?

[acasanovanex]

Hi there,

We would like to use multiple vmkernel ports for vMotion in an environment with a Nexus 1000v dVS.

We have it working in an environment where the vMotion traffic goes through a VMware dVS and It works amazingly well. We would like to use this new cool vSphere5 feature using vmotion vmk ports attached to a Nexus 1000v? Is it possible? Anyone has it in production?!

Thanks in advance.

Multi-NIC vMotion works with any VMotion enabled VMkernel portgroup, regardless whether it is using standard switches, VMware vDS or a third-party vDS like the Cisco Nexus 1000v.
