Hi, Ali!

 

I was also try Direct through attach configuration but fail.

When I was enabled Intel VT-d on my X8DTN+-FLR then vSphere unable recognize MHQH19-XTC.

 

But another MHQH29B-XTR was always ok!

 

Big problem is windows vm with QDR HCA (via Intel vt-d) was always BSOD and reboot continuously forever.

 

QDR HCA's firmware was 2.9.100 or 2.9.1200 (if available)

vSphere 5.1 update 1

VM hardware 9

 

I was read all aspects about vRDMA last years.

 

I think vRDMA is best choice and you'll be co work VMware...:)

 

SRP is very powerful protocol but have many problem for

extreme solid storage.

 

iSER is better choice for virtualized environment.

 

I was test SMB 3.0 on my personal lab with Windows server 2012. Performance was good but not a SAN feature and not a standard. That's a very funny for me....:)

 

 

Anyway....

I was drop SRP, IPoIB, Direct path-through with Intel VT-D.

 

If there is a vRDMA experimental project...

 

Do you have official plan?

It means co work with VMware that add a new vRDMA feature in ESXi hypervisor.
