Hello Everyone,
I have 4 Nics/Hyper-v node and 10G/Nic.
My first design was to create 2 logical switch with 2 teaming, like this:
1st logical switch:
Management_OS (2 Nics)
- Admin
- Cluster
- Live Migration
- HV replica
- Backup
2nd logical switch:
Management_VM (2 Nics)
- VM Prod
- VM Val
However regarding the backup,I will have to use DPM and some of my needs will be to use system state backup or database backup, that means I have to install a local agent on VM.
So if i want to create a backup dedicated network, what's the best way to do it. For me i have 2 solutions:
- Publish backup vlan on the Management_VM logical switch
- or link my VMs with a Vnic on the 1srt logical switch, so that's mean my VM would have one attachement by logical switch
I think the first solution is better but I will use my management_VM network for VM and Backup, and I can assign a weight for the backup needs.
I looked for some best practises for converged networks designs but with a backup need for my hyper-Vs and VMs, I am not sure about the correct design to apply.
thanks by advance.
