Hi,
I have backup'd a ESXi configuration to another ESXi machine and that went well with command: vicfg-cfgbackup -l -f -server 192.0.2.xxx /tmp/192.0.2.xxx-backup
1. The thing is i could see is that after the backup process, the backup has done something which changed the order of vmnic0 to vmnic2 and it was by default not selected (host unreachable) i had to select vmnic2 manually.
2. Other thing that i have seen is that the Virtual Machines are also displaying in the new environment. only as a empty guests with description:
unknown (inaccessible) see attached screenshot
question 1
how can i prevent the vimnic order doenst/ must not be affected?
if this is normal, can i prevent the selection method vimnic remains unaffected?
question 2
if the backup proces takes a ghost vm to the new environment, is it possible to backup the whole VMs whitin this vMA backup process?
Thank you
