If necessary, attach the iSCSI network to managent over vlan 16 (using the "iSCSI (over management)" network defined for the pool as a secondary management network). |

| + | By default, VM hosts should be attached to the network in the following way: | ||
| + | * first high-speed ethernet (eth0, or eth2 on blades with a dual 10G mezzanine board): untagged ve11 installnet, and tagged ve16 iSCSI | ||
| + | * second interface (eth1 or eth3): tagged-only, the data networks: 2,3,4,6,7,8,9,14,66. | ||
| + | : additional networks can be added for hosts that process sFlow data (ve12), or p4ctb private data (ve17) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Only if no secondary network interface is avaialble, should data traffic be directed over the management link (and then, only tagged). Having data traffic on the installnet may interfere with heartbeat and live migration functions. | ||
| + | In order to ensure consistency for live migraton, please make sure that all hosts in the pool have ''the same network configuration', and that all data networks are offered to all hosts! | ||
