SC 3.2 with one NIC

Hello,

I am going to learn SC 3.2 and want to deploy testing cluster. Unfortunatelly the hosts I have to do so has only one NIC each. While it is not supported/adviced in production can I install/use/learn SC 3.2 having only one NIC (of course in testing environements) ?

Regards

If you just want to setup a single-node cluster then yes, this is possible, since you don't need any adapters for private interconects. Your single nic is for public network.

If you want to setup a two-node cluster, then no, this will not work. The only variant that could work is usinging a vlan-tag capable nic card together with a switch configured to use with vlans. Then you might be able to achieve this, but I never tried to do that for both, interconnect and public lan at the same time with just one nic.
