Services.sh restart this will restart management agentsĪLT+F2 this will return to DCUI interface, verify if the grayed option is available now or not. Note: Is your ESXi under maintenance mode? Yes I normally put servers under maintenance before doing any major changes and especially if it is related to network change.Įsxcli network ip interface list this will list your vmkernal interfacesĮsxcli network ip interface remove -I vmk0 (vmkzero is my management interface) this removed my vmk0 interfaceĮsxcli network vswitch standard portgroup list this will list all portgroupsĮsxcli network vswitch standard portgroup remove -p ‘Management Network’ -v vSwitch0 this removed port group called “‘Management Network’ from “vSwitchzero)Įsxcli network vswitch standard uplink remove -u vmnic0 -v vSwitch0 this removed uplink called vmniczero from vswitch zeroĮsxcli network vswitch standard uplink remove -u vmnic4 -v vSwitch0 this removed uplink vmnic four from vswitdh zeroĮsxcli network vswitch standard portgroup add -p ‘Management Network’ -v vSwitch0 this created a portgroup called Management Network inside vswitch zeroĮsxcli network ip interface add -I vmk0 -p ‘Management Network’ -m 1500 this created a new vmkernal interface called vmk zero andĮsxcli network ip interface ipv4 set -i vmk0 -I yourmanagementip -N subnetmak -t static this added ip address and subnet mask to vmk zeroĮsxcli network ip route ipv4 add -g gatewayip -n default this added default gatewayĮsxcli network vswitch standard uplink add -u vmnic0 -v vSwitch0 this added vmnic0 as uplink to vswitch zero Step2: is to rebuild standard switch using esxcli commands. Login using root and enter rest of the commands. This will take you to the command line shell interface. If you navigate to Configuration > Storage adapters, you cannot see LUNs that are not used as. Note: To access the Raw Device Mappings option, right-click the virtual machine and click Edit Settings > Add Hard Disk > Raw Device Mappings. This enabled direct command line on the ESXi host. If you connect the vSphere Client directly to an ESXi host, the Raw Device Mappings option is grayed out. Step1: Login to DCUI command line interface by clicking the “troubleshooting options” and then select “Enable ESXi Shell”.

On the other day I was playing with vmkernal adapters and noticed Configure Management Network option is grayed out but relax there is a way to solve this problem…
