vSwitch load balancing mode - set values in batch file

[pironet]

Hi Gurus.

I need to change for a long list of hosts the vSwitch load balancing mode to a new value, for instance "route based on the originating port ID" .

And as i'm a lazy VMware admin, I want to batch that

Anyone has a tip for me ?

Thx,

Didier

Hey Buddy,

thats the command:

vmware-vim-cmd /hostsvc/net/vswitch_setpolicy -nicteaming-policy=loadbalance_srcid vSwitchX

Thx mate it works like a charm...

BTW what are the other possible values for 'nicteaming-policy' ?

Cheers,

Didier
