ISCSI enabling jumbo frames

$

Hi Everyone,

 

I just want to make sure I am on the right track here.

 

In theory, I should be able to enable jumbo frames to 9000 on my switch and SAN without affecting the hosts. The Scenario would be:

 

  • Shutdown all ESXi hosts
  • Reconfigure SAN and switches to support jumbo frames
  • Turn on ESXi hosts

 

Basically, I want to make sure the switches and SAN work together correctly with the change before I change anything on the hosts. ideally if all goes well with the hosts testing (vmkping -d -s 1500 x.x.x.x and powering on VMs) I would then change the MTU on the VMKernel ports and try the hosts again.

 

Sound good in theory?
