Hi all,
I understand that system vlan allows traffic flowing for those vlan even if VSM is not reachable, and system vlan should NOT be normal virtual machine traffic vlan. In my deployment of a normal vSphere environment with N1kv, I am setting these vlans as system vlan: ESXi Mgmt, N1kv mgmt, control & packet, VMotion, IP Storage.
I am setting those vlans as system vlan on both uplink port profiles and indivdual port profiles for each of the VLAN. Correct me if this is wrong.
what else should be system vlan, or what of those should NOT be system vlan? VMotion vlan? what are the cons for specifying all vlans as system vlan? Isn't it better because even if VSM is down for any reason, VEMs will still forward traffic for all VMs?
thanks,
ming
