I am hoping I can get some help with this. I have struggled for a few days testing and nothing seems to be working. My setup is below.
vSphere 7 environment (vxrail x 4 hosts) connected via brocade 10gb switches. Management network is 192.168.1.0/24 that routes through a virtual palo alto sitting in the vsphere environment. Vlans are establsihed for management, iscsi and office network all running over trunks on the brocades.
New xcp-ng environment stood up, 6 x r715 with 2 dac cables from each server to brocades all ports configured as trunks and set to 9000 on the bond and vlan vifs in xcp-ng. Management ips for hosts and XOA (built from source) are on the 192.168.1.0/24 network. XCP-NG has a default SR connected to a truenas via iscsi vlan. I have validated with iperf3 from a xcp-ng host to the truenas that I am seeing 9.7GB speeds. The drives in the truenas are a zfs zvol with arc and log ssd's and the rest of the drives are 7200 4tb drives, 12 of them.
XOA was built with a management ip on the 192.168.1.0/24 network that routes via the virtual palo alto. When I go to import a vm from vmware, the max speed I am seeing is 135 megabits/s (this is seen in the netdata app on truenas scale) so a 100GB vm takes almost 3 hours to transfer.
I bring up the palo alto because im sure our license does not support 10gb throughput but if the XOA has to connect to a esxi node via the management interface to detect what vms are on it, it probably transfers via that same connection. How is the best way to transfer vms without having to rebuild a different router that is not locked down to speed due to license limitations.
