Trigger Auto Deployment on Target Hosts

When a new node is added to the cluster, it needs to be manually rebooted for the ESXi and NSX-T VIBs to be configured.

Note: Only applies to stateless hosts.

There are two ways to prepare hosts to trigger auto-deployment of ESXi and NSX-T VIBs to be configured.

• Reboot hosts before applying TNP to the stateless cluster.
• Reboot hosts after applying TNP to the stateless cluster.

If you want to migrate VMkernel adapters when installing NSX-T on the hosts, see:

• Scenarios When the Stateless Host Is in the Target Cluster
• Scenarios When the Stateless Host Is Outside of the Target Cluster

What to do next

Reboot hosts before applying TNP to the stateless cluster. See Reboot Hosts Before Applying TNP.
