But it is not a solution, because the cluster will goes down when one of the switches goes downThere are 3 switches in each diagram. If one or even 2 100 GBE switches go down, there is still one Management-heartbeat switch that helps to avoid StarWind VSAN and Cluster split-brain.
I think, you will get bottleneck in your PCIe lanes, so you cannot get 100 Gbit/s throughput.We used 100 GBE NICs to avoid networking being a bottleneck
We set up redundant cluster communication links in each of our deploys. One link, e.g, Management, is for cluster communication and clients. Another one, Sync, is for Cluster-only communication. So, cluster split-brain is not likely to happen.But it is not a solution, because the cluster will goes down when one of the switches goes down.
Sure, will chat with them on this.I think, you will get bottleneck in your PCIe lanes, so you cannot get 100 Gbit/s throughput.
