METHODS AND APPARATUS TO MIGRATE PHYSICAL SERVER HOSTS BETWEEN VIRTUAL STANDARD SWITCHES AND VIRTUAL DISTRIBUTED SWITCHES IN A NETWORK

Abstract:

Disclosed examples include determining that a user-approved migration plan satisfies a proposed migration plan, the proposed migration plan to configure a virtual distributed switch using network configuration settings of a virtual standard switch corresponding to first physical network interface cards, the user-approved migration plan based on a user-selection responsive to the proposed migration plan; creating the virtual distributed switch in a first host and a second host in response to the user-approved migration plan satisfying the proposed migration plan; and configuring the virtual distributed switch based on the network configuration settings of the virtual standard switch.
