Hi Shanker, Thanks for your suggestion, I would give it a try. Isolating VM traffic from storage traffic, that's the best practice. I wish I had a chance to make recommendations about the design from the start.
I also think about upgrading openvswitch, there seems a lot of performance improvement. But there is not much information out there, especially the compability and which version is supported with Xenserver. Btw, we are now focusing on control those VMs that are flooding packets. The system now can sustain a lot more flows going through.

Have you considered upgrading openvswitch to a newer version? I personally have not tried updating openvswitch on xenserver but should be possible using the DDK. YMMV! http://git.openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=openvswitch;a=blob_plain;f=INSTALL.XenServer;hb=HEAD -- @shankerbalan M: +91 98860 60539 | O: +91 (80) 67935867 shanker.ba...@shapeblue.com | www.shapeblue.com | Twitter:@shapeblue ShapeBlue Services India LLP, 22nd floor, Unit 2201A, World Trade Centre, Bangalore - 560 055 Need Enterprise Grade Support for Apache CloudStack?
