Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Bonding IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic link aggregation : Bond showing less than desired throughput Post 302996603 by MadeInGermany on Thursday 27th of April 2017 04:04:04 PM

I am not an expert with link aggregation, maybe nobody here is.
It seems there is aggregated eth0 with eth2, and eth1 with eth3.
The only unusual setting is the BOOTPROTO=static for eth0.
You have set xmit_hash_policy=1.
Maybe you should change to xmit_hash_policy=layer3+4, then two hosts can use more interfaces if more services (ports) are involved. But the other way is controlled by the LAN switch.
And - maybe everything works as designed, according to this article.

NAME
aoe-discover - tell aoe driver to discover AoE devices SYNOPSIS
aoe-discover DESCRIPTION
The aoe-discover command tells the aoe driver to discover ATA over Ethernet (AoE) devices on the network. All network interfaces will be probed with a AoE config query broadcast. If the aoe-interfaces command has limited the allowable network interfaces, only devices discovered via allowable interfaces will become available. The default is to make available all AoE devices found on all accessible ethernet networks. It's good to run the aoe-discover command after running aoe-interfaces. EXAMPLE
In this example, the root user on a host named nai loads the aoe module with only eth0 allowable for AoE traffic. After remembering that shelf 7 is on eth3, this sysadmin uses aoe-interfaces to add eth3 to the list of allowable network interfaces and then calls aoe-discover to ask the aoe driver to look for new AoE devices. nai:~# modprobe aoe aoe_iflist="eth0" nai:~# aoe-stat e10.9 eth0 up nai:~# aoe-interfaces eth0 eth3 nai:~# aoe-discover nai:~# aoe-stat e7.0 eth3 up e7.1 eth3 up e7.2 eth3 up e7.3 eth3 up e7.4 eth3 up e7.5 eth3 up e7.6 eth3 up e7.7 eth3 up e7.8 eth3 up e7.9 eth3 up e10.9 eth0 up SEE ALSO
