vSwitch vmnic failover question

$

0

For uplinks, what is the relationship of the port group NICs to the vSwitch NICs if they have different active/standby settings?  For example, if I have vSwitch0 and 3 port groups within that. 

 

Port Group 1 has 3 nics with override failover enabled.  2 active and 1 standby that do not match the vSwitch0 active/standby settings. 

 

Assume standard vswitch with physical nics connected to a 3 switch stack for general VM traffic. (not iscsi)

 

If a vmnic is listed as standby in the vSwitch, does that mean it is unavailable to the port group if selected as active there?  Is there any reason all of the vSwitch0 vmnics could not be listed as "active" and plugged into the switch stack?
