FYI, there is a setting that controls how Solaris balances the frames

IP, MAC or round robbin.
Network nodes (like switches) on the other side of the cable are part
of the problem. It is them that decide how to forward packets from LAN
to your aggregated host connection. If they do it based on MACs (like
at least those Nortels I worked with in one project), roughly selecting
"portnum=(mac1-mac2)%numports" there is little you can to to get more
than one wire's worth of incoming traffic from a particular storage
user to your one server (if you remain within the L2 link-aggregation
connection technology for this task, that is).
