      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi All,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As we knew, VMware has DRS function for Host resourse and Storage.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Why VMware doesn't develop network DRS or vMotion(not mean vSS to vDS)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If ESXi host'network usage is having heavy loading,why not just use this function to balance network resource.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This is my little thought. Welcome to discuss about it&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;BR,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Rocky&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I guess it might be one of future features of VMware NSX.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you have heavy load on switch you can use &lt;A href="http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/index.jsp#com.vmware.vsphere.networking.doc/GUID-ADEA0213-C969-43E4-B1F4-66D4A916EBDF.html"&gt;NIOC vSphere Network I/O Control&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi Mike, &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the response.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;About " &lt;SPAN style="color: #666666; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"&gt;Load Based Teaming (LBT) or Route Based on Physical NIC Load "&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You said " I&lt;SPAN style="color: #666666; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"&gt;f vmnic usage is above 75% for 30 seconds, it will re-pin vmkernel ports or VMs to vmnics"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Do VMs change to another host? Or just have some load balancing policies&amp;nbsp; between vmnics&amp;nbsp; in the same host? &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Many thinks &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Rocky &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
