Hi,
I have two processor sockets/server and each with 18 cores and I have multiple networks setup on dual port 40gig converged mellanox NIC.

I have tried to do the RSS and vmq as explained in the above link and I have been having issues when i setup as per this guide lines. First of all, setting a numanode does not change the group, at least for me, so the way i managed to do it is as shown below
with hyper threading enabled, 18 cores /socket, gives 36 cores and 72 logical cpus. I have 6 networks plus two NIC ports on converged nics assigned to SET vswitch. The networks are Management,LM,Cluster,Management,SMB1,SMB2. Can someone please take a look and let me know if this is OK?
Set-NetAdapterrss -Name “vEthernet (SMB1)” -NumaNode 0 -BaseProcessorNumber 18 -MaxProcessorNumber 32 -BaseProcessorGroup 0
Set-NetAdapterrss -Name “vEthernet (SMB2)” -NumaNode 1 -BaseProcessorNumber 18 -MaxProcessorNumber 32 -BaseProcessorGroup 1


Set-NetAdapterRss -Name NIC1 -BaseProcessorNumber 2 -NumaNode 0 -MaxProcessors 8 -MaxProcessorNumber 16 -BaseProcessorGroup 0
Set-NetAdapterRss -Name NIC2 -BaseProcessorNumber 2 -NumaNode 1 -MaxProcessors 8 -MaxProcessorNumber 16 -BaseProcessorGroup 1


Set-NetAdapterVmq -Name “NIC1” -NumaNode 0 -BaseProcessorNumber 2 -MaxProcessors 8
Set-NetAdapterVmq -Name “NIC2” -NumaNode 1 -BaseProcessorNumber 2 -MaxProcessors 8


Set-NetAdapterrss -Name “vEthernet (LM)” -NumaNode 1 -BaseProcessorNumber 34 -BaseProcessorGroup 1

setting VMMQ as shown below crashing windows unpectedly as attached

Set-VMNetworkAdapter -name "SMB1" -ManagementOS -VMMQEnabled $True

Set-VMNetworkAdapter -name "SMB2" -ManagementOS -VMMQEnabled $True

Set-VMNetworkAdapter -name "LM" -ManagementOS -VMMQEnabled $True
