Update Network Profile to use InfoBlox?

[dessimus]

We have been working on getting VRA 8.9.1 setup and integrating InfoBlox. After a successful POC with test networks, we want to roll out to additional existing production networks, but VRA doesn't seem to allow me to add an InfoBlox provider to a network if there are active deployments using the Internal IPAM provider.

Is there a way to update/change the network to use InfoBlox without needing to delete existing deployments?

Thanks,
Rick

No, there isn't.

We used the following "workaround", in case anyone else has this issue:

1. Power down the VM(s) on the network in question.
2. In vCenter, remove the VM(s) from Inventory.
3. In VRA, delete the deployment(s).
4. Re-add the VM(s) in vCenter and boot.
5. In VRA, remove the old internal IP ranges and add InfoBlox.
6. Onboard the VM(s).
