the appliance is other linux (64) with vmxnet3 NIC but when you try to vmotion you get an error
when i vmotion i get the following error Virtual ethernet card 'Network adapter 1' is not supported. "This is not a limitation of the host in general, but of the virtual machine's configured guest OS on the selected host."
i selected skyline on my support request and did not get someone from that team. I was disappointed
I was told t
This is not a limitation of the host in general, but of the virtual machine's configured guest operating system on the selected host. Check the Guest OS Compatibility Guide to know which network adapter is supported for the guest operating system. Resolution To resolve the issue, shutdown the virtual machine and change the network adapter type to one of the supported adapters mentioned in the Compatibility Guide. To change the network adapter type, remove and re-add the Network adapter: Right-click on the virtual machine and click Edit Settings. Under Hardware, select Network Adapter 1 > Remove > Ok. Right-click on the virtual machine and click Edit Settings. Click Add > Select Ethernet Adapter > Next. Choose the right adapter type, then click Next > Finish.
so i changed i to E1000. If this is true why build an appliance with the wrong NIC ?
