In-Order Delivery
Enabling In-Order Delivery for a VSAN
When you create a VSAN, that VSAN automatically inherits the global in-order guarantee value. You 
can override this global value by enabling or disabling in-order guarantee for the new VSAN. 
To use the lowest domain switch for the multicast tree computation, perform this task:
