Recovered VM's - No network
Hi - I wonder if anyone has come across this before or has any suggestions / ideas.
We have 5 ESXi Hosts in our Primary data centre and 5 in our DR DC, all running VMware ESXi, 6.7.0, 18828794. Site recovery manager, protection groups and recovery plans exist to mirror the live VM's the the DRDC. All runs OK but randomly after running the recovery plans some VW's come back up without a working network connection. With testing I have proved this not specific to any one VM, host or vNIC driver. Also to repair the broken NIC seems to require different fixes every time. Sometimes a VMotion to another host will fix it, sometimes we have to add another vNIC, sometimes changing the vNetwork the NIC is connected to and then back again will fix it. What I can say with certainty is it never happens when recovering back to the primary DC, I can ever recover a "disconnected" VM back and it's fine in the primary.
Anyone got any ideas or seen this before?
