VI WD With VSAN on incorrect VDS - how to move?

Hi all,

I created a 4-nic VI Workload Domain and incorrectly specified the VSAN portgroup to be on VDS-02 when I want it to be on VDS-01 along with the Management and vMotion portgroups. I would like VDS-02 to be used exclusively for overlay networks.

Here is the section of the JSON input file I used:

"networkSpec": {
"vdsSpecs": [
{
"name": "WD01-SPR-VDS-01",
"portGroupSpecs": [
{
"name": "DLAB-INF-2205-ESX",
"transportType": "MANAGEMENT"
},
{
"name": "DLAB-INF-2206-VMOTION",
"transportType": "VMOTION"
}
]
},
{
"name": "WD01-SPR-VDS-02",
"portGroupSpecs": [
{
"name": "DLAB-INF-2207-VSAN",
"transportType": "VSAN"
}
],
"isUsedByNsxt": true
}
],

 

 

Question: How can I move the portgroup to VDS-01 ? I don't really want to destroy the entire WD just to re-create it again!

Attached is the vcenter view...

This post is quite old and I am assuming you have fixed / recreated it by now.  However, to my knowledge it is not supported to change the pnic / vnic mapping after domain creation and it will have to be redone.
