For each newly created tenant, a default Service Engine group (Default-Group) is created and defined per cloud basis.
A new SE group is created using the Template Service Engine Group option available on NSX Advanced Load Balancer UI. The new SE group's properties will be the same as the Template Service Engine Group. Using this option, you can change any property for the default SE group or any other SE group.
Procedure
- Navigate to Infrastructure > Cloud.
- Select the appropriate cloud, and use the Template Service Engine Group option shown in the screenshots below for different clouds. Use this option to customize settings for the SE group as per the requirement.
Note:
If template Service Engine Group is not provided correctly, any new SE group created post upgrade will have only base image present and not the patch.
- You can set this configuration for NSX-T cloud using the following CLI:
