I have a 2 node 2012 R2 Hyper-V setup that i am trying to configure Hyper-V HA. The network setup for both nodes are as follows:
Total: (8 x Ports):
4 x Adapters - (Teamed:Production/VM external access) @ 3 x 1Gbps and 1 x 10Gbps
Teaming Mode: Switch Independent
Load balancing mode: Dynamic
Stanby adapter: None (All adapters active)
Network: 192.168.100.x
2 x Adapters - iSCSI (MPIO) @ 10Gbps
Network: 192.168.115.x
1 x Adapters - Cluster (Managment,VM Migration and replication) @ 10Gbps
Network: 192.168.100.x
1 x Adapters - Phone Network @ 1Gbps
Network: 192.168.104.x
The problem is that the failover and cluster manager (FCM) is selecting the Production network for one node and the cluster for the other. I want the cluster network to be dedicated for managing the hyper-v, migrations and replication.
I have configured the adapter order on the nodes as follows:
vEthernet (vSwitch_Production)
Team_Production
NIC1 - Production
NIC2 - Production
NIC3 - Production
NIC4 - Production
NIC5 - Cluster
NIC6 - iSCSI
NIC7 - iSCSI
NIC8 - Phone
Can anyone please comment as to if this network setup will work with Hyper-V HA and, how I can ensure the correct adapters are selected by FCM?
