VMware NFS data stores

DevilWAH

Simple question.

in esxi 5.5 when you mount a NFS data store how can you tell which NIC will be used?

I assume that it will use any NIC with a IP address in the same range as the storage array, but is there any way to fix this or check?

its not i want to do this, jsut curious as from what I see there is nothing in the network setting about NFS, (unlike iscis,managment or vmotion check boxes) is there any path-control settings for NFS?

NFS will indeed use the VMkernel in the same subnet. As there isn't a port binding option, all you can really do is removing the uplinks you don't want to use from the vswitch with said vmkernel. By default however, it will use the first uplink it can find on the same subnet.
