Guys,
Any help appreciated.
Running 6 hosts in a VMware cluster all running standard switches, proceeded to migrate the standard switch to vDS seems to have gone wrong now unable to connect to vcenter server and or any of the ESXi hosts.
Have tested the following
Lockdown mode is not enabled
have used the network Restore - Restore network setting
using the DCUi ESXi hosts can ping the gateway and other host in the cluster
unable to log onto the host with the vi client, have set ip vlan and all relevant information back in as normal.
I only have a couple of VM's running on the system I can find this all out with the vim-cmd command so this is not an issue, vcenter is up and running i not able to access this either
Any ideas before i have to do the nuclear option and start again, reset system Config, a lot of hassle if i have to do this but at the moment i see no way through.
Regards
Paul
Hi
following this KB: https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=20329...
you could restore vds in these steps:
Hope this could be useful

If you have confirmed that network setting are correct and you able to ping other devices on the network from your ESXi, try restart the management agents on the ESXi host and then try connect again using the vSphere Client.
Sorry... too many hours in front of a dying cx3-20....
Like said rcporto try to restart management agents... then connect to the esxi which contains vCenter, adjust management connectivity and connect vCenter to the right port-group.
