Teaming NICs within Hyper-V R2

Well a new Proliant Support Pack (8.30) is available so it's time to put it to the test.

I'm currently getting setup to install this within a production Hyper-V R2 (running Live Migration) environment. I'm hoping it's going to be as simple as installing the PSP on the Server 2008 R2 Core Hosts - this is the recommended install order for the PSP - however only time will tell.

I'm also curious how the team interacts with the Cluster Services and if any there are performance gains to be had by running the vendor NIC drivers.

Watch this space for the results ( 10 days away at date of this post)
