Datacenter Virtual Machine Live Migration Network Optimization

Accelerated zero-downtime virtual machine live migrations across hypervisor nodes by establishing dedicated high-speed network interfaces.

Key Features & Implementation

  • Isolated Live Migration VLAN: Placed hypervisor migration traffic onto an isolated, non-routable 10GbE network segment to prevent packet sniffing.
  • Jumbo Frames (MTU 9000): Configured MTU 9000 end-to-end across host NICs and switch ports to maximize data transfer efficiency and reduce CPU load.
  • SMB Multichannel Bandwidth: Enabled SMB Multichannel aggregation across dual 10GbE links, achieving sub-second VM RAM sync cutovers.
