Last night I updated the first of three servers, and I planned to do the rest today. For now, I have stopped the process. The server upgraded fine without issues from 6.5 to 6.7 but after I did my first migration of a VM I got an error (Network connectivity lost). The alert email I get is as follows.
[VMware vCenter - Alarm alarm.NetworkConnectivityLostAlarm] Network connectivity restored on virtual switch "vSwitch3", portgroups: "GUEST-OS". Physical NIC vmnic2 is up.
Target: 192.168.2.51
Previous Status: Green
New Status: Red
Alarm Definition:
([Event alarm expression: Lost Network Connectivity; Status = Red] OR [Event alarm expression: Restored network connectivity to portgroups; Status = Red] OR [Event alarm expression: Lost Network Connectivity to DVPorts; Status = Red] OR [Event alarm expression: Restored Network Connectivity to DVPorts; Status = Red])
Event details:
Network connectivity restored on virtual switch "vSwitch3", portgroups: "GUEST-OS". Physical NIC vmnic2 is up.
vmnic2, vmnic3, and vmnic4 are part of my vSwitch3 group. I can reset the error back to green and it won't come back until I do another migrate or last night when Veeam was backing up, Snapshots also seem to trigger this error.. I am not losing connectivity as the VM is running just fine. I put in a support request last night and haven’t heard back from VMWare yet, and I am at a loss. I am leaving the other two servers still on 6.5. Anyone have any thoughts? I am really lost here. Everything was fine until I went to 6.7.
