Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 and guest issue

[Daveyd123]

I have 2 Dell PowerEdge 2950s each with 2 embedded NICs and a 4 port Intel NIC.

I am using the 2 embedded NICs to access an iSCSI SAN and Port#1 on the 4 port NIC for the heartbeat for the cluster. Port#2 on the 4 port card connects the server to the LAN.

I setup Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 on one of the servers. I then added a guest O/S. I configured the guest to use the LAN port on the Host (Port#2 on the 4 port card). For reference, the Host LAN IP is 192.168.0.5, 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1

I fired up the guest and assigned the guest an IP of 192.168.0.6 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1

I cannot access the LAN from the guest O/S. I can ping the Host IP of 192.168.0.5 but that's it.

How do I get my guest server to access the LAN??

OK, after fooling around with everthing I am seeing an issue with the NICs in the cluster.

As I mentioned I have a 4 port Intel card in each server.

They are setup on each server as follows:

Port 1 named "Public LAN"
Port 2 named "VS1"
Port 3 names "VS2"
Port 4 named "Private Heartbeat"

If I look in cluster administrator, I see the following:

"Public LAN" shows as being Port 1 on cluster node1 and Port 1 on cluster node 2

"Private Heartbeat" as being Port 4 on cluster node1 and Port 4 on cluster node2

"VS1" shows as being Port2 on cluster node1 and PORT3 on cluster node2

"VS2" does not even show up in cluster administrator.

Any idea why they are showing like that??
