Service Console settings help, need to change from console

Hello,

While trying to rework are nic mappings to port groups all my nics where put into one vSwitch and I lost connection status to the esx server. How would you edit the network settings from the console to change the network settings.

following the link I gave you, you should be able to move things around properly. You will however have to be standing in front of the console or have some sort of remote console connection available like iLO or DRAC.

when complete you should restart hostd

service mgmt-vmware restart
