FWIW, $dayjob has taken the approach of mgmt server clusters being geographically local to the zones under management (so sub 5ms typically). Bandwidth requirements from mgmt servers to hosts is actually so small in the aggregate, that it's not even a consideration really. Production traffic / storage IO / secondary storage activity are what drive the BW requirements, and mgmt traffic gets to come along for the ride. The regions feature makes it perfectly reasonable to have multiple mgmt clusters, and frankly they have a small footprint... so there isn't much downside to this approach. Why push the limits of latency tolerance if not required. ;-) This doesn't directly answer you question, but it's one approach. -chip
