Environment
PlateSpin Migrate
Situation
Target machines using the vmxnet3 require manual configuration after the completion of a migration job. The issue occurs with X2P migrations.
Resolution
Change the "PreferredVMwareNicAdapter" setting in the PlateSpin configuration from the setting of "default" to "vmxnet3"
1. Open up a web browser and launch URL https://[PlateSpin_hostname_or_IP]/platespinconfigration
2. In the Search bar, search for “preferredVMwareNicAdapterâ€
3. Choose "vmxnet3" from the list of adapters.
4. Save the changes.
This will allow future jobs to default to the "vmxnet3" NIC.
