EMC Celerra VSA Setup Help
Hi All,
Complete virtualization noob here looking for some assistance. Just some background, I just started using VMWare software 1-2 weeks ago so I don't have much experience. Any help would be appreciated. Here is my situation:
I have two Dell PowerEdge 2950 rack servers with two NICs on each. The first server is running ESXi 4.1 with ~600GB storage with RAID10 and contains a few VMs. The second server is intended to be a storage server for the first server and has ~2.8TB with RAID5. Let's call the first server 'production' and the second 'storage'. There is only one available network cable which connects to NIC0 of the production server. I also have another cable connecting production server's NIC1 to storage server's NIC1. How exactly do I implement Celerra VSA in this situation? Is it correct to have eth0, eth2 to vSwitch0 (production's NIC0) and eth1 to vSwitch1 (production's NIC1)? I'm just a little bit lost with the network configurations in general.
If anyone could point me in the right direction - thanks a lot!
