Looking for some advice on how to configure my NICs & virtual networks for my vmware lab.
I have the following setup
2x ESX5.5 Hosts with 2 NICs each
1x Synology 1812+ hosting an iSCSI datastore
1x 1810-24g switch
My original thought was to just setup NIC teaming on the ESX hosts, but after I did that I could not bind a vmkernel nic to my iSCSI storage adapter.
I am also getting a bunch of complaints from vmware about my management network not being redundant.
Net of all of this is I am new to the vSphere world, so looking for some general advice.
