Probably should've bought different gear but got two 93180s in vPC config.
3 VMWare hosts. 3 Vswitches on them. Each with 3 dual 25gbps NICs. Plus some 1gbps.
Plan to use 2 ports from each host per vswitch connected to each Nexus for redundancy. Management and VM networks tagged on one, datastores access and vmotion on the other ones. VPC basic setup and working OK. Looking for recommendations for the rest.

We don't aggregate links on Netapp. Anyhow. I would prefer not to use distributed switches. But I'm really stuck with this. We have it working OK on Catalyst but ..
Last question, does any payload data from one Peer Switch travel over Peer Link at all ? All I see is mac sync etc. but nothing about actual traffic. That would mean Peer Link should be a bit wider. Or would orphan port on one switch to to same on the other over Peel Link ?
Thx
