esxcfg-vswif command not working on distributed switch

I'm trying to move my service console to a new network and I want to test first by adding another service console on the new network. I've done this a million times with a standard switch but its not working for me on the distributed switch. Am I doing this right?

esxcfg-vswif -a -V dvSwitch0 -P 404 -i 10.132.6.17 -n 255.255.255.0 vswif1

Generated New MAC address, 00:50:56:40:e9:f5 for vswif1

Error trying to perform operation SysinfoException: Node (VSI_NODE_vmnixmod_netcos_command) ; Status(bad0004)= Busy; Message= Unable to Set
