Forgot to add:

While it still primarily addresses vSphere 5.5, there isn’t a whole lot that changed as far as storage, except VVols, which is TR-4400.

 

One thing that will go in the next version of these docs is that we’re dropping the best practice of a LIF per NFS datastore.  Those who saw Eric and I present at Insight got a heads up.  This does not mean tearing apart what people have already deployed and remounting most of your datastores on fewer IP addresses.  That would be disruptive.  What it means is as you deploy new datastores in existing environments, use the existing LIFs/IPs.  For new deployments, we recommend at least one LIF per node per SVM serving NFS datastores.  Depending on network design especially with IP hash and link aggregation, you may want multiple (2 to 4) LIFs per node for better link utilization with datastores mounted spread across those IPs.

Is there an update to tr-4068?  Moreover looking for VMware 6x, NFS, jumbo frames info.  If 4068 is best, I can use that.
