Hi Folks,
Does anyone knows whether there is way to export/backup the dvswitch 4.1?
Plan to upgrade it to later version,like 5.1 to take advantage of features as in but i couldnt find method to backup it unlike if you are in dvswitch 5.1 where it has like snapshot or backup the congurations wherein you could use this if the upgrades doesnt go with the plan.
Hi!
There was no button to backup DVS in 4.1. DVS configuration in 4.1 can be backed up with vcenter database only.
yes that i know,what i was expecting whether we do have method to backup it from powercli or esxcli (i couldnt find it though so it might be not possible),so in any case of mishaps i could just restore it from the backup i saved it somewhere.
As far as I remember PowerCLI to export DVS config doesn't work with 4.1.
So if you'd like to upgrade from 4.1 to 5.x just make a backup of your vcenter and make snapshot before an upgrade.
