I am trying to write a script to help with some major network changes that I am in charge of. The script I am writing should do the following things...
Connect through Mgmt Network2
Remove vmnic2 from vSwitch0
Create vSwitch3
Add several portgroups to vSwitch3
Down the nic's on the Mgmt Network
Restart the Mgmt Network
Sleep 60 seconds
Connect back to Mgmt Network2
Set the vlanid on Mgmt Network
Change the vmk ip of the Mgmt Network
So here is what I have so far... I do believe that I am on the right track but I feel like I may not be going about this the right way. I am also having issue's creating the portgroups on vSwitch3. Any help is greatly appreciated!
