Hi,
It is because your switch is not performing round-robin distribution while
sending data to server (probably it can't). Usually it is enough to
configure ip-port LACP hashing to evenly distribute traffic by all ports in
aggregation. But any single tcp connections will still be using only one
interface.

> I'm using gluster 3.7.5 and I'm trying to get port bonding working
properly with the gluster protocol. I've bonded the NICs using round robin
because I also bond it at the switch level with link aggregation. I've used
this type of bonding without a problem with my other applications but for some
reason gluster does not want to utilize all 3 NICs for writes but it does for
reads... any of you come across this or know why? Here's the output of the
traffic on the NICs you can see that RX is unbalanced but TX is completely
balanced across the 3 NICs. I've tried both mounting via glusterfs or nfs,
both result in the same imbalance. Am I missing some configuration?
