Configure Jumbo Frames for NIC cards in the ESXi-based VxFlex OS servers.
About this task
Perform the following steps, for all the NIC cards in the VxFlex OS system:
Procedure
1. Change the Maximum Transmission Unit (mtu) setting to 9,000 on the
vSwitches and on the SVM (be sure to make the change in /etc/sysconfig/
network/ifcfg-ethX):
a. Type the command:
esxcfg-vswitch -m 9000 <vSwitch>
b. Create VMKernel with jumbo frames support by typing the following
commands:
a.
esxcfg-vswitch -d
b.
esxcfg-vswitch -A vmkernel# vSwitch#
c.
esxcfg-vmknic -a -i <ip address> -n <netmask> -m 9000
<portgroup name>
Note:
Changing Jumbo Frames on a vSwitch will not change the VMKernel
MTU size. For older vCenter versions, check to ensure the MTU setting has
been changed. If not successful, users may need to delete and recreate the
VMKernel. For newer vCenter versions, modify the MTU of VMKernel by
using the vsphere web client.
Configure Jumbo Frames for NIC cards in the Storage Virtual Machine (SVM)-based
