Thomas, OSCAR does not provide any support for channel bonding in its current state, since it only configures one NIC per client machine. IIRC, setting up channel bonding requires the use of a custom kernel, and OSCAR does allow the installation of custom kernels on clients. I suspect any additional work to get channel bonding to work would need to be done manually on each client. If you could provide a quick overview of the steps to setting up channel bonding, we might be able to devise a strategy for making it easier to do within the OSCAR framework, but I can't guarantuee anything.
