I have been running Plex as a plugin on my FreeNAS server for months now without any problems. Note: I know that this might be a solution, but I would rather not run Plex Server on my Nvidia Shield II because I have also seen many complains about this being slow.This is more of a description after the fact, rather than a question. The ideal state is that VM1 and VM2 will communicate between each other through the vSwitch without getting my Netgear router involved and just then one of them (Plex Server) is going to serve to the nVidia Shield over the physical network.ġ) Is there any way how to make sure that transfers are on the vSwitch level and its not going from my VM1 to the HW router and back to the VM2 just so that it can serve the content to my HTPC?Ģ) What is the best way how to expose the data on NAS (Openmediavault) to the VM with Plex Server and avoid physical local network being used?ģ) Is there going to be any noticeable overhead in terms of the slower data transfer between these two VM`s? I have found many threads where people were complaining about slow transfer rates between two VM`s on the same ESXi host (= my case, even the same datastore and hard drive) comparing to the transfer between 2 physical machines. Here a is a super quick draft that I have made: I have successfuly had this set-up with 1 VM until now and because the hard drive is faulty I need to make a switch. What I am affraid of and do not have that much experience with is ESXi networking.
I know that the best practice would be to separate my Plex Media Server VM and OpenMediaVault NAS VM and have 2 VM`s. I am trying to decide whether I should have one or two VM`s on my ESXi 6.7.
