vMotion TCP/IP Stack not available via esxcli

[vMarkusK1985]

Hello,

I am struggling with the automation of a new vMotion VMKernel on ESXi 6.5. The Kernel should use the vmotion TCP/IP Stack. But the Stack is not available via esxcli.

[root@0:~] esxcli network ip netstack list
defaultTcpipStack
   Key: defaultTcpipStack
   Name: defaultTcpipStack
   State: 4660

In the UI the stack is available and can used for new VMKernels.

The vmtotion stack can be created manually before adding the new VMKernels but the new TCP/IP Stack ist then a CustomStack and not SystemStack.

Any hint how that can be automated (SOAP API / REST API)?

Best regards,

Markus

I hope you have checked this VMware PowerCLI Forum - VMware {code}

I am aware of that. But the result differentes from the normal UI way. The new TCP/IP Stack is the a Custom Stack and not a System Stack and vMotion can not be enabled.
