Adding vNICs to existing Service Profile Template

ernest.b

Level 1

Hi all,

 

We added 2 vNICs directly to a Service Profile that was bound to a Service Profile Template, and it looks like after rebooting the SP the vNICs order was screw up and we lost access to our Boot LUN (iSCSI).

 

So, I made some changes to get it working again but I would like to remove those vNICs from the Service Profile and add them to our Service Profile Template.

 

I’m ok with reinstalling VMware, so my questions are:

 

  1. Should I use a vNIC/vHBA Placement policy and choose Specify Manually and place the vNICs in the desired order instead of letting the system place it automatically?

Per Cisco, Let System Perform Placement: If you are configuring the service profile/template for iSCSI boot, choose this option. (https://community.cisco.com/t5/data-center-documents/cisco-ucs-vnic-vhba-placement-issue-with-desired-order-in-vmware/ta-p/3147854)

 

  1. Is unbind/re-bind the service profile enough to remove the recently added vNICs or I should disassociate / reassociate the SP.

 

  1. Do I need to delete all the vNICs in the Service Priofile Template and start from scratch? I read that in a couple of posts.

Thanks!

 

Ernest
