Hi Allessandro, In our environment with servers of 4 NICs, we configured it as following: - 1 bond for management traffic (NICs of 1Gbps) - 1 bond for storage,public & guest traffic by using VLAN separation of course (NICs of 10Gbps)
In your case I would configure it as following - 1 bond for management (active/active or active/passive does not really matter here) - 1 bond for storage (I would choose active/active) - 1 bond for guest+public traffic (I would choose active/active as well). After configuring your cluster you can initiate some VMs and do some performance test with tools like iperf, to check if your configuration works as expected.
