Distributed vSwitch - Host selection

Hi,

I have a datacenter created with 5 esx hosts. Each have 4 physical NICs.

I already used two physical nics for the legacy vSwitches on each host.

Now, trying to create a distributed vswitch & it just shows only one host.

Does anyhow know why it is not showing other hosts?

Any tips for the pre-req for the distributed vSwitch?

Thanks,

Suresh.

Enterprise Plus license is required for vNetwork distributed switch.

It just allowed me to add host on error?

If you like to test this feature, have the esx host in eval mode.

With eval license, you can test the vNetwork distributed switch feaure.

The reason that one host got added was because that alone was running on eval mode.
