[myoth]

Hi All,

My goal is to add additional network to vcenter appliance 6.0 and i am used to using yast2.

it works in 5.5 but I am unable to run that command in V6.0.

in V5.5

in V6.0

Does anyone know this?

Hi,

I'd say the command was removed, as VMware sees their appliances as black boxes, that shoudln't be modified by the user.

So if this is your production vCenter, I woudln't add another network, as you might get trouble in your next support call with VMware.

Hi,

Just see this below works...

# YaST

@Tim: the reason is we need to add backup network.

Tried YasT with sudo su - , it wont work. Maybe vmware removed.

what about if you try first to enable the shell?
