But it is not a solution, because the cluster will goes down when one of the switches goes down .There 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.
