Bonded interfaces on linux are active-backup, so you have a 1Gb connexion on the storage side. Consider to upgrade to a faster ethernet/fiberchannel/infiniband.
I don't think this is the case. You can configure many modes on bonded interfaces; only a few of them are active-backup. For details, see https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt

Hi Eneko

I spoke based on my experience, and I'm not a network expert, so if I'm wrong, please excuse me (and enlight me! :)). What I meant is I know there are several modes, but none of them can "sum" both network interfaces bandwith (i.e.: 1Gb eth + 1Gb eth becoming a virtual 2Gb interface). I think the mode would be balance-rr but that mode come with many troubles.
Neither am I ;-)

Usually you need more than one network connection to use different bonded slaves bandwidth. If you just use one connection (i.e. a scp) then you will only get 1Gbit max. but if you have multiple concurrent network connections then you can use all 2 Gbit, using LACP for example.

In a Proxmox-DRBD setup, each VM using drbd devices will open independent connections so you should be able to use near all the available bandwidth in a bonded interface.

Cheers!
Eneko
