Hello,
I need to move ESX 4.0 servers from one vCenter to another without DB migration. I've got vDS on this servers, what happend when I connect this server without disconnecting it from old vCenter to new one ?
Regards
Pawel
the server loose the vDS switch configuration, but you can see the entries in vDs switch screen that the host was part of vDS because some of the vDS entries will be available in the ESX host as well.
The vDS presents some administrative challenges unique from the traditional vNetwork Standard Switch (vSS) that admins are used to. Specifically, since the vCenter 4 Server actually maintains the vDS configuration, some extra design thinking needs to be built into a vSphere 4 environment where a vDS will be used.
Cheers, Yours Udin ![]()
Check this KB
What happend with vm's connection ? If I understand I'll be able to connect vm's to new vswitch.
Thanks for KB, but this is emergency situation and I can't remove existing vds smoothly from old vCenter.
