We have successfully used multiple bonding interfaces, which work correctly with high speed NICs, at least in Ubuntu with 4.x kernels. In combination with MLAG (multiple seitch chassis link aggregation) this provides at least good physical redundancy. I expect to be able for this to improve further with Software Defined Networking solutions getting more popular and making it easier to create such redundant setups. We have not delved into layer 3 solutions, such as OSPF, but these should be helpful as well to add robustness to the Ceph networking backend. Best regards, Alex > > Thanks for feedback and regards .
