Betreff: RE: CloudStack is creating several PortGroups on DSwitch for the same 
VLAN

Hi Christian,

The number after vlan ID is the bandwidth allowed, which can be set in a 
network offering level, compute offering level, global, etc...
So it might happen that the bandwidth allowed for the network is, for example, 
300mbps. But for the compute offering of a certain VM it is 200mbps, in that 
case you'll end up with two port groups in the same vlan, but different 
bandwidth shaping, in this case:

cloud.guest.VLAN-ID.200.1-DSwitch-Service  and 
cloud.guest.VLAN-ID.300.1-DSwitch-Service

Check the Traffic shaping of those portgroups and it will make more sense :)

In order to ensure all VMs are in the same portgroup you need to set the same 
bandwidth for the compute offering, or leave it blank so the global setting is 
used. You'd also need to match the bandwidth of the compute offerings (or 
global setting) with the bandwidth of the network offering.

Hope that explains what you need

Cheers
Alex

Subject: CloudStack is creating several PortGroups on DSwitch for the same VLAN

Hi all,

we are running CloudStack on vmware ESXi Hypervisor. Sometimes CloudStack is 
creating several port groups for the same VLAN-ID.
Always end on cloud.guest.VLAN-ID.200.1-DSwitch-Service, .300 .500 The 
instances belong not all to the same Port-Group depending on when they were 
created. No we noticed some communication problems between the instances.
If I change the NIC in the vCeneter to the same port group for all instances, 
the communication works.

My question, why is this happening and how can I get CloudStack to connect all 
VMs to the same port group?

CS 4.18.2.3 and vCenter 7.0.3


I look forward to every hint

Best regards,

Christian
