I need some help wrapping my head around how to configure the storage network on my deployment. It's the first time I'm trying to split the traffic types. Previous was a flat network topology. Below is the physical host configuration: (RHEL6.4/KVM/CS4) cloud-manager#> eth0: 172.18.49.10 (management network) #tagged eth1: 192.168.251.10 (storage network) #untagged cloud-host1#> eth0: 172.18.49.11 (management network) #tagged eth1: 192.168.251.11 (storage network) #untagged Both my primary and secondary NFS storage are sitting in the 192.168.251.0 network pri-storage#> 192.168.251.1 sec-storage#> 192.168.251.2 In the Zone configuration wizard I left the defaults in the Advanced Networking options. My logic being that once it get's down to the actual routing the o.s kernel would handle routing the storage through the correct interface (eth1). This ended up working for the Primary Storage, but for the Secondary Storage not so much. The SSVM looks to be trying to route traffic via the 172.18.49.1 gateway. Is there any special configuration that I need to apply to the networking on O.S Side to get this working correctly? I read some posts about having to bridge the networks? Or am I going to have to configure a Storage Network, VLAN, & Range in the Advanced Wizard? Or both :) Appreciate any advice :) Ro This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
