• Vmknic political grouping vs port group virtual wire vm political grouping

  If I choose political VMKnic as "Load balance SrcID", later change my port VM virtual wire group to use the failover policy?

  I would like to have the NAV 5000-group of ports to always use Uplink1, NAV 5001-group of ports still use Uplink2 while VTEP Vmknic are based on 'Load Balance SrcID'?

  Web GUI, I can make such a change, but my new or existing VMs for a specific group of the NAVS are not constantly mapped to what I've specified as the active binding.

  No, it is not supported to change the grouping policy on exchanges for logical switches VXLAN directly through VC. If you want the two uplinks to use, stick with the balance of the load - CBC ID political grouping.

• Port-group on newly created vDS does not work

  Hello

  I have 4 hosts ESXi with version 5.1. The VCenter had the same version 5.1 but the server crashed a few months back, and reinstalled the VCenter engineer new version 5.5 U2. I also have virtual Distributed Switch configured with several groups of ports (VLAN). VLANS are separated by the ID VLAN different. All virtual machines with their VLAN respective can communicate to the breast even VLAN, but also the other VLANs.

  However, I just created a new group of Port with different VLAN ID. Now, the virtual machines in this new VLAN cannot communicate themselves as well as other VLANs. From the virtual machines ping response say "Destination host" inaccessible

  When I move the virtual machines to another VLAN they start working and when I move them back to this new VLAN they do not.

  I also tried assigning VLAN IDS to another VLAN to this group of port newly created, beginning of VMs works again. But the VLAN ID of this group of ports does not work with other groups of Port.

  To me, it seems that the creation of new VLAN ID has some problems. Although I followed the documented process of VMWare.

  I noticed that I have the following versions:

  1 VCenter Server: worm 5.5

  2 Server ESXI host: ver 5.1

  3 vDisbritued Switch: ver 5.0

  Have idea if it's a bug or compatibility problems. Am I missing something?

  Thank you

  I was talking about this doc-

  I hope this help you.

• vShield Manager interface network & group of port / vlan

  Hello:

  I'm new to vShield and looking to use it in our environment.  I read the documentation and seeks to install the first part, the Device Manager vShield.  By reading the docs, it specifies the management interface for the vShield Manager is in its own group of port.  Why is this?  Is it okay to put this interface in a group of existing port?  Is it possible in a port with another management SMV Group (vCenter, etc.)?  Also, is it better practice to have this in a standard vs dvswitch, or isn't it important?  I was looking through posts and the other docs and so far I don't see a clear reason why it must be in its own group of port.

  So far, the only element that we will consider is vShield Endpoint, for now.  We have no plans to watch App or Edge, etc.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  The Manager can be put on any standard or distributed port group. Do not create any new groups-port. The only thing that is necessary to access vCenter/SSO and DNS, NTP server (mirror).

  There is no need to create a new. IMHO, this could be a failure in the doc.

  Kind regards

• Group of port and the naming convention for vLAN

  What is the naming convention better for groups of ports on vSwitches?  This naming convention should match how we name them VLAN on the physical switches and how important is that?

  Hi VMinator,

  To answer your question, he has not agreed to 'standard' for names of portgroup.  That's all what you're comfortable with the support and what works for you and your organization.  A bit like server names; Some companies are going hardcore with the naming conventions and others their name after the characters in science fiction or world of warcraft bosses

  Forensic science more you pack in a naming of the control standard more you have (i.e. for scripts, health check, etc. see below).  Also, if the name itself answers questions on his own and allows you to save a phone call that is priceless.  For example - the guys says unix... "Uh which network to choose for my new virtual machine.  My IP is blah blah blah. "Well, with right portgroup name, this question would have answered itself... and maybe even recorded some interruptions of service in other cases by the simple fact of being clear and effective in the communication of how this virtual device should work: purely expressed through an appropriate naming convention.

  Here's another one.  My last concert, we had thousands of virtual machines that had to move data centers and when they landed, they needed to change the IPs and start using 3 vNIC (instead of 1) on each virtual machine.  Each vNIC with a different subnet mask.  All support should be conducted by a team of outsourced with minimum experience of VMware.  The only way to support something like this and be effective is PowerCLI.  With just invited the naming convention only, you can perform various tasks such as query the virtual computer and check its settings of portgroup compared to its actual IP information in the operating system, initiate a ping from .NET to the virtual machine, if there is any questions Act automatically.  Some actions that will have to be performed include, for example, change the portgroup or mask on a set of clients;  Or questioning guests and glean information network (CDP, vSwitch, portgroup of information etc.) and compare observed network vs network expected enumerated in the PG naming convention. etc etc.  The list of actions that you can take are limited only by your creativity.  The naming standards give you effective power both in manual and automatic efforts.

  Still, notice of one man, but every site I care and feeding generally ends with a PG standard similar to what I first described above in my previous post.  Don't forget my example naming convention is Basic.  There are many other attributes that you can add (i.e. in vCloud deployments, in addition to the info network, you can choose to identify various features specific to vCloud org-networks, etc.).

  TBH just most of the companies have appointed VM-network exchanges (ok not bad) or some random shortname which doesn't help troubleshooting.  They are fairly easy to fix and also change over time, if necessary.  You can easily drag and drop a set of virtual machines (although I don't personally do this way) in the new port group (via the page of networking to CTRL + SHIFT + N) or PowerCLI it (Yes!  way to go).  Of course, always the ping tests before and after the change.  There are a lot of scripts out there (or ask master lucd post in PowerCLI VMTN forums).  If this is net-news, then you are ahead of the game and will have a standard to follow, whatever it is.

  Best of luck and have fun!

• Port 20Gbit-channels using ports sfp +.

  Hello

  I hope to implement a cost affective solution who can use ports for uplinks on the X 2960 & switch series XR and where appropriate to the top/downlink modules for X 3750 series switch

  If someone knows if it is possible to group ports sfp + 10 GB in a channel port 20gbit?

  Whoever did this or they could point me in the right direction for documentation?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Yes, it can group several ports 10Gig on all these devices as long as you have the appropriate modules.  2960 X supports up to 24 Etherchannels and the XR up to 48.

  If you are uplnking the 2960 3750-X series, you need a 10Gig for X-3750 series module.

• Rename groups of ports

  Hello

  In vCenter via web client, I added a vswitch to some host. I have added a group of ports for the new vswitch so that I have two groups of ports on each vswitch who manage some physical cards and renamed the old port 'VM Network' groups while it appears on the web with a unique name client network tab that hostname in it.

  I put the network card of virtual machines to the new port groups.

  The old "VM Network" "VM Network1" and the "VM Network2" still appear in the web client, Network tab, they have even machines in the old network, although I changed to they renamed network. So the machine appears twice, in the new one the old network. I can't get rid of the old network. When I try to migrate virtual machines from the old to the new network, the list is empty.

  

  Also, when I try to clone a machine, I get a warning that the NIC of the virtual computer using a network ("the new network name") that are not accessible. It seems to me, the old network names are still in use. Is there a chance to fix this? I'm afraid to have performance problems.

  The virtual machine have Active snapshots, where shots were created so that virtual machines were still attached to the groups old port? In this case, the ports 'ghost' groups should disappear after deleting snapshots.

• Migration of the existing groups of port DVS vSwitch

  Hey guys,.

  I am looking for a good article, but so far I don't have if existing port a groups with std vSwitch ESXi can I migrate to a newly created DVS.
  I saw VMs, Assistant network management, but it seems that I have to create all the groups before port.

  Is this really the case? as I have 70 groups of ports and I don't want to do the job manually.

  Any suggestion?

  Thanks in advance

  Evening,

  This process can be script but yes destination port groups must be created first.   I suggest to use the Onyx project to get the commands in powershell to create groups of ports.  Personally, I have 700 groups of ports and I understand your pain.   Onyx will allow you the creation of a port group unique in powershell then all you need to change is the name and vlan id.   If you have the standard naming, you should be ok...

  Let me know if you have any additional questions or I missed your question.

  Thank you

• Two groups of ports with same VLAN on the same Vswitch?

  I'm doing a consolidation.  We had two different people put up two closed different of Vsphere and different network labels were used.   Of course the network labels must exactly match vmotion without losing connectivity.    So I was hoping that I could just create groups in double port on my vswitch for VLAN do not match them.  I know I could just migrate them and move quickly from the network label, but some of them are essential and may not fall.

  For example, on a cluster, I might have a port for Vlan ID 88 group that says 'Web DMZ'.  But the other cluster has "WWW" VLan ID 88.    Can I just create a second group of ports on the first group which also used Vlan ID 88 with the name 'WWW' and I started?    Which will cause problems with switching (loops, etc.)?

  Hope it makes sense.  Guess the short answer is can I I have two groups of different ports on a vswitch using the same VLAN ID tag without causing problems?

  Creation of several groups of ports with the same VLAN ID should not cause any problem. This is only marking/close the traffic to and from the virtual machine, is nothing like that of loops,... to be afraid of.

• Create groups of ports from excel

  I have a spreadsheet with 60 groups of ports, that I need to create. My fields are VLAN and name. Looking at the cmdlets reference guide , it seems that the command to create one would be Get-VDSwitch-name 'Boston ' | New-VDPortgroup-name 'test SQL VLAN 250″ - VLanId 250. Can someone help with the structure to create it from an excel file? I'm checking the rate maximum config to see if I hit a limit about my ports with vSphere 5.1 and need to set a number of ports per port group. Thank you.

  Try something like this

  $dvSw = Get-VDSwitch -Name "Boston"
  
  Import-Csv dvPortgroups.csv -UseCulture | %{  New-VDPortgroup -Name $_.PgName -VlanId $_.VLanId -NumPorts $_.Ports -VDSwitch $dvSw}
  

  The CSV file is supposed to have 3 columns

  PgName, VLanId, Ports

  PG1, 100, 32

  PG2, 100, 32

  You can check the number of available ports on the dvSwitch first, to see if you can add he's the ports required for exchanges

• groups of ports DV in vcenter 5.0

  Hello

  I would like to get the list of dv-trade in vCenter 5.0 that is associated with a switch particular dv. Can someone guide me how we can get it.

  Also is there anyway to get a list of network vSphere (exchanges) in vCD with its external networks or groups of ports alone.

  Let me know is there possible way with samples if anyone has.

  Thank you

  If you have vmware installed power cli, try the command for the Group dvport in dvswitch, the list below

  If you have several dv switch and pull information GRPE particular dv switch ports, try below.

  #Connectez viserver (vcservername)

  #get - virtualswitch-(name of the dvs switch). Get-virtualportgroup

  If you only on dv switch, use her below lists all of the available port group.

  #get-virtualportgroup

• vCenter log files entries for the new virtual machine or distributed groups of ports

  All,

  I can't find the entries for the new virtual machine or distributed groups of ports in the vpxd.log file.

  Not in the logfile (used for debugging purposes).

• Change the VLAN ID on a group of ports on a vSS

  We are changing the subnet that our vCenter VM resides on that will translate into change us vCenters IP address, subnet mask and gateway.

  He also goes to say that we must change the VLAN ID on the port group.

  My question is, can we change the Port Group VLAN ID first or first change vCenters details?. (So it is in VST Mode physical ports on the switch are trunk ports with say VLAN 100 and 200 with the new 300 of VLAN to add)

  Very welcome any suggetions. :-)

  Use the vSphere client to connect to the host that is running the VM vCenter.

  In this session of vSphere client, you can

  (a) change the VLAN switch vSS

  (b) open a console for the VM vCenter and change the IP settings it

  The vCenter VM will lose its network connection, but your session will continue to run, because you are connectly directly to a host (and no to vCenter).

  If the vCenter server is connected to an Active Directory server, then make sure to use a local administrative account or a domain administrator with cached credentials to connect.

  Furthermore, after you change the IP address of vCenter you will probably run the issue described here: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1001493, but the article contains a resolution for this.
