Having some issues creating a lot of vswitches, these are done programmatically, however I'm running into these errors:
WARNING: NetPortset: 1853: vswitch_id_254: no empty slots
WARNING: Net: 2155: can't create portset: Out of resources
| ESXi Version | Maximum vSwitches |
|---|---|
| VMware ESXi, 6.5.0, 14320405 | 254 |
| VMware ESXi, 6.7.0, 13006603 | 254 |
| VMware ESXi, 7.0.0, 16324942 | 62 |
Neither of these are even close to the configuration maximums of 4096 and why is it so different between versions?
How can I create more than 256 vswitches on an esxi host!? Is this a bug with ESXi 7?
Reproducible:
powercli |
