Issue/Introduction
This article introduces Hardware compatibility - Physical NIC link speed is satisfied to the minimum requirements check in the vSAN Health Service and provides details on why it might report the info state and how to fix it.
Resolution
Q: What does the Hardware compatibility - Physical NIC link speed is satisfied to the minimum requirements check do?
vSAN ESA recommends a minimum aggregated network link of 25Gbps. You can consider multiple NICs to achieve this minimum aggregated speed requirement. This check is to validate whether the vSAN network configuration can satisfy the minimum requirements.
Q: What does it mean when it is in an info state?
It means the current vSAN network configuration can't satisfy the minimum requirements of PNIC link speed.
Q: How does one troubleshoot and fix the info state?
Use physical NIC whose link speed is equal to or higher than 25Gbps for vSAN traffic. Once the network configuration meets the minimum requirements, this check will be cleared from Skyline health UI.
