ESX 7.0.3 : inherit configuration in port group lost after reboot

[NicolasVaes]

Hello,

I'v a vSwitch with "Route based on IP hash" in the configuration 

But mgmt port group based on the vSwitch don't keep inherit configuration and he switch automatically in "Route Based on Originating Port ID" after a reboot.

I don't understand why.

Thanks

Hi, @NicolasVaes

To answer your question, the answer is yes.

If by chance a so-called override is applied as regards the selection of the active, standby or inactive network interfaces, any other inheritance setting of the settings from an existing virtual standard switch is immediately restored to what someone has decided it should be a correct and default setting.

If your host is managed by a vCenter object, if certain conditions concur the practical result is even worse.
