Hi,
I'm trying to provision the workload VMs using VMMark3 in a seperate cluster (other than the PrimeClient and Client0 VMs) and it looks the provisioning was successful.
I've observed that the IP addresses are assigned from a default internal network (192.168.1.x).
These internal IPs are not reachable from my PrimeClient (which is on a different network, PrimeClient is on 10.111.0.x):
Following is the error message from the provisioning logs: (Attached
2020-07-28T13:16:03.569 [pool-3-thread-20] ERROR COMM : Client0 : All pings failed at 192.168.1.1 : Try increasing ProvisionPingMaxTries in VMmark3.properties
2020-07-28T13:16:03.570 [pool-3-thread-20] ERROR ST221 : Terminating Early Due to Provision Thread Errors (2)
2020-07-28T13:16:03.576 [pool-3-thread-20] ERROR MAIN : Exception Caught: Terminating Early Due to Provision ThreadErrorsErrorsFound: 2 : exitSetting true
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Krishna,
As Fred mentioned the instructions are on pages 47-48. If you've correctly modified the ifcfg-eno* files (per page 48) then they shouldn't be changing after a reboot. Double check you have things right there.
Look at the documentation pages 47-48 about configuring the PrimeClient - especially the parts that talks about adding 2 NICs. One NIC for the isolated private network (default 192.168.1.X) and the other NIC to to access the outside networks and ESXi hosts.

Thanks fredab2 - I've modified the IP address, NetMask and GateWay details for the 2nd NIC with the private network details. (192.168.1.x). The Workload VMs are reachable now.
However, if I reboot PrimeClient VM (though there is no need to reboot, but just in case), the network changes I made are lost and the previous configuration is set.
Any guidance here is highly helpful.
Best,
Krishna
