You have a Windows Server 2012 R2 failover cluster that contains four nodes. Each node has four
network adapters. The network adapters on each node are configured as shown in the following table.
NIC4 supports Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) and Receive Side Scaling (RSS). The cluster
networks are configured as shown in the following table.
You need to ensure that ClusterNetwork4 is used for Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) redirected traffic.
What should you do?
A.
Set the metric of ClusterNetwork4 to 90,000 and disable SMB Multichannel.
B.
On each server, replace NIC4 with a 1-Gbps network adapter.
C.
Set the metric of ClusterNetwork4 to 30,000 and disable SMB Multichannel.
D.
On each server, enable RDMA on NIC4.

Hint: If you disable SMB Multichannel, it will then rely on the metric priority of each NIC. If you enable SMB Multichannel, the metrics are ignored and the fastest NIC will be given priority for the traffic.
Therefore, if you see any answer that contains “enable SMB Multichannel”, this will be correct. Regardless of what the metric is set to.
Good tip, No. Thanks!
