Lab Configuration of Multiple Subnet NFS Storage Traffic [Video]

Building upon an earlier deep dive post on running NFS on vSphere (part 3), this video goes over a few configuration pieces to successfully setting up multiple subnet storage traffic.

The following scenarios are reviewed:

• The use of a single VMkernel port for NFS with multiple physical uplinks
• Identifying and resolving routed NFS to a secondary subnet
• Correcting a sub-optimal teaming policy
• Details on using the ESXi routing table and traceroute to determine if NFS traffic is routed
• ESXTOP review of vmnic selection

If you’re curious how to highlight rows in ESXTOP, try the NUM2 and NUM8 keys.
