I am creating a new storage spaces direct cluster on server 2019 to replace an existing 2016 cluster. I am using dual port Mellanox x-5 cards after adding the physical NICs to the SET switch I create the virtual NICs for hyper-v after adding the
vnics the server reports their connection speed as 10 gigabits which is the speed of the physical links but on my 2016 storage spaces direct cluster the virtual NICs report a connection speed of 20 gigabits per second which would be the aggregate speed of
the two 10 gigabit links. What I am trying to find out is what the virtual NICs are supposed to report their connection speed as the single physical links or the total of all the links in the virtual switch set. I can’t seems to find an answer
of what the correct answer is in my searching. I want to make sure I am not missing a set somewhere. Can anyone shed some light on what should the virtual network cards report their speed as?
