I am attempting to setup a vDS; first time doing so. I normally just use vSS but I have the opportunity to "play" with vDS with a new cluster I am building. One concern that i have and have not been able to get a clear understanding of is how do I setup a vMotion port? With vSS I have a dedicated nic(s) on each host. I created a dedicated "vmotion" vS' on each host for vMotion traffic.
How do I set this up on a dVS? Do I create a seperate switch for vMotion or a seperate dvPort Group? I tried a dvPort Group but when I do this, it appears that port group is attached to every NIC on the dvSwitch. the way i have this setup, it just does not appear as if the vMotion traffic will actually go out of the dedicated nic that i want it to.
