Mijn advies om RSCin te zetten.

Vraag: is RDMA zeer wenselijk? Wat is RDMA? RDMA staat voor Remote Direct Access Memory Het is een directe geheugentoegang van het geheugen van de ene computernaar de andere zonder één van beide besturingssystemen te gebruiken. Ditmaakt netwerken met hoge doorvoer met weinig vertraging mogelijk Twee typen RDMA* iWarp RoCE*Note which one your network adapters use, and if RoCE, also note the version (v1 or v2).For RoCE, also note the model of your top-of-rack switch.** Storage Spaces Direct requires high-bandwidth, low-latency networking betweenservers in the cluster. At least 10 GbE networking is required and remote direct memoryaccess (RDMA) is recommended.
