All credit goes to Alexander Stoklasa:
Using the task “AddPortGroupToNetworkPolicy” this allows adding the newly created portgroup to the “ethX” alias in the Network Policy.
Be aware, that the “AddPortGroupToNetworkPolicy” task does not have a proper rollback – hence rolling back will invalidate the policy in the VDC. Theres a trick from Orf/Michael on how to register an “empty” Task which only creates a rollback.
(UCSD - Rollback Examples (4)).
The PortGroupName I create from “AddDomainToEPG”.VMWARE_DVSWITCH_PORTGROUP_IDENTITY … just shuffling some of the info around.
I also had to add the “AssignDVPortGrouptoGroup” Task, that the user was able to select the portgroup – might be needed in your case as well.
