RE: [Xen-users] bonding with trunking AND iscsi
You can bond your NICs from the dom0 to the switch, but there's no way
to do the same for the MD3200i, as far as I am aware. So your SAN
traffic won't really make use of link aggregation.
For our MD3200i we dedicated two switches and two NICs per host, using
multipath. That gives us high availability and 2Gbps (theoretical)
bandwidth. Works great. We started with 4 NICs per host, however.
