Confirm Hyper-V Failover Cluster 7400-4 Node Zoning with all 6 ports.
Hello
I am just here to confirm the zoning we are doing with our Hypervisors in our cluster. I have read the Best Practices guide as well as several other forums and blogs and this is the conclusion I have drawn from it. Please let me know if I should adjust, change, etc. I will use an 8 server Hyper-V Failover Cluster as an example, each with 2 HBAs for Host and Hyper-V VMs. (Should I add another 2 to dedicate to Hyper-V VM traffic?)
ServerAPort1 - 0:1:1, 1:1:1
ServerAPort2 - 2:1:2, 3:1:2
ServerBPort1 - 2:1:1, 3:1:1
ServerBPort2 - 0:1:2, 1:1:2
ServerCPort1 - 0:2:1, 1:2:1
ServerCPort2 - 2:2:2, 3:2:2
ServerDPort1 - 2:2:1, 3:2:1
ServerDPort2 - 0:2:2:, 1:2:2
ServerEPort1 - 0:2:3, 1:2:3
ServerEPort1 - 2:2:4, 3:2:4
ServerFPort1 - 2:2:3, 3:2:3
ServerFPort1 - 0:2:4, 1:2:4
ServerGPort1 - 0:1:1, 1:1:1
ServerGPort2 - 2:1:2, 3:1:2
ServerHPort1 - 2:1:1, 3:1:1
ServerHPort2 - 0:1:2, 1:1:2
Assuming we have all ports configured on all 4 nodes. We currently don't but are planning to, at which point I would just keep going through the sets as seen on ServerG and ServerH. I have read that Hypervisors should see all 4 nodes and any other server should just need 2, which is how I was planning the Hyper-V VMs. Thoughts? This is using Single-Single Zoning as well.

That looks fine. However, unless there are a lot more servers that you didn't mention, you might want to keep the 0-3:2:3-4 ports in reserve. Give you flexibility to use things like Remote Copy and/or Peer Motion in the future.
