Yes, using failover groups across an 8 node 6220 cluster, works very well, had quite a few fail overs in the last 2.5 years,
and the system has maintained service during all of them, so well that the applications/users failed to notice anything
happening, including a decent sized VMWare setup, getting it’s storage via NFS.

Interesting thread....

A peer suggested recently that in cDOT failover groups could be used instead
of ifgrps for availability. It was suggested as it simplifies the
configuration (don't have ifgrps and failover groups) and means a LIF can
failover to any port in the cluster (depending on type of LIF of course)
rather than just the ports on the node.

Not considering throughput has anyone else heard of or considered this
configuration?

Thanks
Martin
