Azure Local network config with NetworkATC

Post a Comment

Network ATC deployment.

Recommendations:

  1. Use the defaults where possible
  2. If unsure, refer to rule #1.

This cluster is a 5x node each with 4x 25Gbps adapters. 2x for Compute & Management, and 2x for Storage.

I set jumbo across the board. Don’t argue, just do it.

I use default Vlan ID’s for storage (711 & 712) and use the IPs that get assigen via Network ATC. Yeh my OCD kinda wanted the last octet to align with the host number but at the end of the day, we just want it to work.

 

$globalcluster = New-NetIntentGlobalClusterOverrides
$globalcluster.MaximumVirtualMachineMigrations = 4
$globalcluster.MaximumSMBMigrationBandwidthInGbps=6
$globalcluster.VirtualMachineMigrationPerformanceOption=”SMB”

$adapterprop = New-NetIntentAdapterPropertyOverrides
$adapterprop.JumboPacket = 9014
Add-NetIntent -Name Storage -Storage -AdapterName ‘Embedded FlexibleLOM 1 Port 1′,’Embedded FlexibleLOM 1 Port 2’ -AdapterPropertyOverrides $adapterprop
Add-NetIntent -Name Compute -Compute -Management -AdapterName ‘PCIe Slot 4 Port 1′,’PCIe Slot 4 Port 2’ -AdapterPropertyOverrides $adapterprop
Add-NetIntent -GlobalClusterOverrides $globalcluster
