I have a small VMM setup with all machines running Widows 2012. Using VMM 2012 SP1. The library is hosted on the VMM server it self. The VMM server is also the DC for the small environment. There are 3 hosts in a failover cluster. All of the physical machines have access to two networks: 1 fast (GigE) backend/management network, and slow (100mbps) front end network that provides Internet access to the machines via a firewall.
Whenever I create a VM via a template from the library, the transfer happens over the slower front end network instead of the faster backend network. I have done the following:
- DNS only has records for IPs in the backend network
- In VMM's library properties, only the backend VM Network is selected (the VMs also have access to the backend network, hence the VM Network).
- The cluster's IP is on the backend network. The front end network has 'Allow cluster network communication' checked, but 'Allow clients to connect through this network' is UNchecked.
How can I force the transfer to happen only over the backend network?
Edit: I'm on Update Rollup 2
Thanks in advance!
