Good point. Thanks a lot

FYI:
I had such a thing working. What you need to keep in mind is that you
should configure both interfaces per host on the same (software) bridge
and keep STP on… that way when you loose the link from node A to node B
the traffic will be going through node C.

It's still just 1Gbit

Other than limited throughput, I can’t think of a problem. But
limited throughput might cause unforeseen situations.

Please excuse, if this is too basic, but after reading
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cluster_Manager I wondered, if the
cluster/corosync network could be built by directly connected
network interfaces. I.e not like this:
+-------+
| pve01 |----------+
+-------+ |
|
+-------+ +----------------+
| pve02 |-----| network switch |
+-------+ +----------------+
|
+-------+ |
| pve03 |----------+
+-------+
but like this:
+-------+
| pve01 |---+
+-------+ |
| |
+-------+ |
| pve02 | |
+-------+ |
| |
+-------+ |
| pve03 |---+
+-------+
(all connections 1Gbit, there are currently not plans to extend
over three nodes)
I can't see any drawback in that solution. It would remove one
layer of hardware dependency and potential spof (the switch). If
we don't trust the interfaces, we might be able to configure a
second network with the three remaining interfaces.
Is such a "direct-connection" topology feasible? Recommended?
Strictly not recommended?
I am currently just planning and thinking and there is no cluster
(or even a PROXMOX server) in place.
Cheers
