Connecting the storage to the host
We attached the database volumes on the Dell EqualLogic PS6000 storage to the Dell PowerEdge R710 server
by connecting all four NICs available on the PS6000 array to a Dell PowerConnect 6248 switch. We used two
physical NICs in the server dedicated to iSCSI traffic to connect the Microsoft iSCSI Initiator within each VM to
their respective database volumes. We used the remaining NICs in the server for normal network communication
and VMkernel traffic. iSCSI traffic used one subnet, while normal network communication used a separate subnet.
