DS

Buenas tardes, tengo una duda, ¿puedo configurar la misma tarjeta de red de un ESX en 2 DS diferentes?.

Un saludo,

Enrique

From Google Translate:

Good afternoon, I have a doubt, can I configure the same network card of an ESX in 2 different DS ?

Each physical NIC port (labelled vmnic0, vmnic1, and so on) is the equivalent of an uplink port on a physical switch, so the simple answer to your question is "no"

Each vmnic can only be associated with a single virtual switch regardless of the virtual switch type (standard or distributed). If you have a multi-port physical NIC, then each physical port is a separate vmnic.
