Re: Virtual system sharing nic card with the host system.

Virtual system sharing nic card with the host system.

We have an rx3600 with two nic cards inside. But we want our virtual systems on two vlan subnet. Is it possible for the virtual system to share the nic card with the host. (although I heard HP doesn't recommend this practice)

Re: Virtual system sharing nic card with the host system.

Are you asking whether an HP Integrity Virtual Machine can share the same physical NIC as the Virtual Host, then the answer is most certainly yes.

Yes you can - I do this now on a RX6600.
