You can encounter errors when migrating VMkernel interfaces and physical NICs from a VSS or DVS switch to an N-VDS switch or revert migrating interfaces to a VSS or DVS host switch.
Error Code | Problem | Cause | Resolution |
---|---|---|---|
8224 | Unable to find the host switch specified by the transport node configuration. |
The host switch ID cannot be found. |
|
8225 | VMkernel migration is in progress. |
Migration is in progress. |
Wait for the migration to complete before performing another action. |
8226 | VMkernel migration is only supported on a ESXi host. |
Migration is only valid for ESXi hosts. |
Ensure that the host is a ESXi host before you initiate migration. |
8227 | VMkernel interface is not appended with the host switch name. |
On a host with multiple host switches, NSX-T Data Center cannot identify association of each VMkernel interface with its host switch. |
If the host has multiple N-VDS host switches, ensure the VMkernel interface is appended with the host switch name of the N-VDS the host is connected to. For example, the network mapping for uninstallation of a host with N-VDS host switch name nsxvswitch1 and VMkernel1 and another N-VDS host switch name nsxvswitch2 and VMkernel2 must be defined as follows: device_name: VMkernel1@nsxvswitch1, destination_network: DPortGroup. |
8228 | Host switch used in the device_name field not found on the host. |
Incorrect host switch name. |
Enter the correct host switch name. |
8229 | Transport node did not specify the transport zone of the logical switch. |
Transport zone not added. |
Add the transport zone to the transport node configuration. |
8230 | No physical NIC on the host switch. |
There must be at least one physical NIC on the host switch. |
Specify at least one physical NIC to an uplink profile and the VMkernel network mapping configuration to a logical switch. |
8231 | Host switch name does not match. |
If the host switch name used in vmk1@host_switch does not match the host switch name used by the destination logical switch of the interface. |
Ensure that the host switch name specified in the network mapping configuration matches the name used by the logical switch of the interface. |
8232 | Logical switch not realized on the host. |
Realization of logical switch on the host was unsuccessful. |
Synchronize the host with the NSX Manager. |
8233 | Unexpected logical switch in the network interface mapping. |
The network interface mapping for installation and uninstallation lists both logical switches and port groups. |
Network mapping for installation must only contain logical switches as destination targets. Similarly, network mapping for uninstallation must only contain port groups as destination targets. |
8294 | Logical switch does not exist in the network interface mapping. |
Logical switches not specified. |
Ensure that logical switches are specified in the network interface mapping configuration. |
8296 | Host switch mismatch. |
The network interface mapping for uninstallation is configured with the incorrect host switch name. |
Ensure that the host switch name used in the mapping configuration matches the name entered on the host switch where the VMkernel interfaces reside on. |
8297 | Duplicate VMkernel. |
Duplicate VMkernels are specified for migration. |
Ensure that no duplicate VMkernel interfaces are specified in the installation or uninstallation mapping configuration. |
8298 | Mismatch of number of VMkernel interfaces and destinations. |
Incorrect configuration. |
Ensure that each VMkernel interface has a corresponding destination specified in the configuration. |
8299 | Cannot delete transport node as the VMkernel interface is using ports on N-VDS. |
VMkernel interfaces are using ports from the N-VDS switch. |
Revert the migration of all VMkernel interfaces from the N-VDS switch to a VSS/DVS switch. Then attempt to delete the transport node. |
9412 | VMkernel cannot be migrated from one N-VDS to another N-VDS. |
Unsupported action. |
Revert the migration of the VMkernel interface to a VSS or DVS switch. Then, you can migrate the VMkernel interface to another N-VDS switch. |
9413 | VMkernel interfaces cannot be migrated to a different logical switch. |
On stateful hosts, a VMkernel connected to a logical switch cannot be migrated to another logical switch. |
Revert the migration of the VMkernel from the logical switch to a VSS/DVS switch. Then, migrate the VMkernel to another logical switch on the N-VDS. |
9414 | Duplicate VMkernel interfaces. |
Duplicate VMkernel interfaces mapped in the installation and uninstallation mapping configuration. |
Ensure that each VMkernel interface is unique in the installation and uninstallation mappings. |
9415 | Powered on VMs on the host. |
With powered on VMs, migration does not proceed. |
Power off the VMs on the host before you initiate migration of VMkernel interfaces. |
9416 | VMkernel cannot be found on the host. |
Did not specify a VMkernel that exists on the host in the network mapping configuration. |
Specify a VMkernel that exists in the network mapping configuration. |
9417 | Port group not found. |
Did not specify a port group that exists on the host in the network mapping configuration. |
Specify a port group that exists in the network mapping configuration. |
9419 | Logical switch not found during migration. |
Did not find the logical switch defined in the network interface mapping configuration. |
Specify a logical switch that exists in the network interface mapping configuration. |
9420 | Logical port not found during migration. |
During migration, NSX-T Data Center does not find the ports created on the logical switch. |
Ensure that no logical ports are deleted from the logical switch for migration to be successful. |
9421 | Host information missing to validate the migration process. |
Unable to retrieve host information from inventory. |
Retry the migration process. |
9423 | Pinned physical NICs to a VMkernel interface are not migrated to the correct host switch. |
A pinned physical NIC was found in the environment but the VMkernel and physical NIC are not being migrated to the same host switch. |
A physical NIC pinned with VMkernel interface must have a transport node configuration that maps the physical NIC with the VMkernel on the same host switch. |
600 | Object not found. |
The specified transport zone used by the logical switch does not exist. The logical switch found in the VMK mapping destination cannot be found. |
|
8310 | The logical switch type is incorrect. |
The logical switch type is Overlay. |
Create a VLAN logical switch. |
9424 | Cannot migrate if both PNIC only Migration and Network Mapping for install or uninstall settings are configured at the same time. |
Migration progresses only when one of these settings is configured. |
Ensure that either the PNIC only Migration or Network Mapping for install or uninstall setting is configured. |
