Script to move VM interfaces from one dvSwitch to Another

Hi,

I need to reconfigure all VM interfaces from one dvSwitch to another in a specified cluster.  The other
dvSwitch already exist but the port groups are named are a bit different as you can't have the same named per vCenter.  Can I somehow do it by VLAN ID? The
source dvSwitch is LACP and the destination is not, we are moving off LACP..

Thanks..

As a proof of concept, would the following not work?

The values for OldPG and NewPG can be obtained from a CSV, and the code can be placed in a loop over all the portgroups that need to be migrated.
If you have VMs with more than 1 vNIC, the code needs to be expanded a bit.

Get-VDPortgroup -Name OldPG | Get-VM |

Get-NetworkAdapter |

Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName NewPg -Confirm:$false

What is Get-VDPortgroup returning?
And how would your CSV file look like?
With some sample data if possible.

All the ones named dv02-* would go away after we move off LACP.  Ideally i'd import a .CSV of VM's, which would then look up the corresponding VLAN for each VM on dvSwitch02 and then move the VM's interfaces to dvSwitch01
