Advanced Features
PXE is used extensively for the deployment of the cluster (installation and recovery of compute nodes). Teaming is typically
not used on the host side and it is not a part of our standard offering. Link aggregation is commonly used between switches,
especially for large configurations. Jumbo frames, although not a part of our standard offering, may provide performance
improvement for some applications due to reduced CPU overhead.
Oracle
In our Oracle Solution Stacks, we support adapter teaming in both the private network (interconnect between RAC nodes) and
public network with clients or the application layer above the database layer.
