Let me rephrase the question, if this is possible in vShpere 4
the vSphere client gives you the option to assign either a portgroup or a specify port to a VM NIC, the problem is that the drop-down list to select the specific port is always empty...
1- Create a dvSwitch
2- Create a VM
3- Right-click on the VM and click on Edit Settings
4- Click on one of your NICs
5- SELECT THE "SPECIFY PORT" OPTION UNDER "NETWORK CONNECTIONS"
6- SELECT THE DVSWITCH
7- TRY TO SELECT A SPECIFIC PORT BUT YOU WILL HAVE AN EMPTY DROP-DOWN LIST
So, in the vSphere client, you can either select a portgroup or "SPECIFY PORT" but when you select the "SPECIFY PORT" option, the "Port ID"
drop-down list is always empty.
If vSphere doesn't support assigning a dvport ID to a VM,
there an option to do so in the vSphere client??
why is drop-down list always empty??
