I’m Building a small production VSA environment (VMware or HP VSA - still deciding, 2 hosts, 12 VMs, low IOPS environment). I was looking for advice/recommendations for the back end network for the network RAID between the two hosts.
Would a VLAN on our current Procurve 3500yl 48 x 1gig ports suffice?
As a comparison has anyone got any suggestion for some reasonably priced dedicated switches (24 port or smaller).
