Jumbo Frame VLAN but leave MTU at 1500?

$

We're using vSphere 5.0 U2. We have a SR open with VMware because of some networking issues in our environment. Specifically with Sharepoint.

 

Our environment is on a DVS with the MTU set to 9000. The virtual machines are on a VLAN that is jumbo enabled on the switches. The TSE at VMware is stating that we should **not** be setting the MTU on our VMs to 9000, but only the DVS. My networking team completely disagrees with this and I tend to agree with them.

 

We also have many physical servers and storage on this same VLAN whose interfaces do have the MTU set to 9000. Does anyone have any insight to VMware's saying to leave the MTU at 1500?

 

Thanks,

Clint
