Hi,
Im running esx 3.0.1 with the last patch on an HP c-class systems. For 6 ESX, all work fine. But for 3 esx, some vmnic always stay up, whenever the switch is down and out of the blade center!
I've two vswitch :
\- vswitch0 : service console (vlan id 2 ) & VMotion (vlan id 302 )
\- vswitch1 : vmnetwork_1 (vlan id 101) & VMnetwork_2 (vland id 102)
The problem is always on the vswitch1. I've tried reboot, service mgmt-vmware restart, remove and recreate the switch... no way...
Anybody can help me?
How many uplinks does vSwitch1 have?
I never experienced that kind of problems while I'm doing mostly c-Class systems.
Hi Vliegenmepper,
Each blade has 6 ethernet port. 2x On board port and one mezzanine card with 4 ports.
The problem occur with the two first port of the mezzanine card (hpnc325m) :
\ | v |--
\ | s |--
\ | w|
\ | i |
\ | t |
\ | c |
\ | h |
\ | 1 |
If I shutdown or remove the switch int the bay 6, the vmnic are always on.
Thank you for your help
Vincent
