Would I gain anything by enabling jumbo frames for my ESXi 5.1 hosts? I am running FCoE on 30 IBM H blade hosts connected to Nexus 4001i's and Nexus 5010's. I known by default FCoE has MTU of 2158 (baby jumbo frames.) I just didn't know if I upped my MTU on my vMotion port group to 9k and did the same on my Nexus switches, if I would see any performance gain or loss? I know jumbo frames are specifically for ethernet so iSCSI is a good candiate for jumbo. I just didn't know if it's relavent for FCoE. Thanks!
