VxRail Query
Hello Experts,
A customer has a quarter rack Greenplum, The greenplum brings 2 switches and 1 additional switch for management.
Customer wants to buy a VxRail60 to deploy virtual application servers and has a query on whether he can connect VxRail appliance to the Greenplum nodes. Is this possible?
Or do he need to add additional switches to connect VxRail and then uplink these switches to the greenplum switches?
Thanks
Virender Singh

It depends on the switch capacity and capabilities.
VxRail 120, 180 and 200 Appliances requires a 10GigE top of rack switch (TOR) that supports IPv4, IPv6, Multicast (only on the ports VxRail connects to), IGMP Snooper, and IGMP Querier is required. A fully populated appliance will require 8 Ethernet connections. For the VxRail 60, each node requires 4-1 GbE connections for a total of 16. If the customer wishes to use optional RMM BMC management port an additional 100 Mbps connection to the customer management network is required per node. 1 GbE and 10 GbE RMM port speeds are not supported.
VLANs will also need to be configured on the switch.
