VCD Three persona (reseller level)
- Efect on NSX-T
- API calls
- UI changes

- 1 for all traffic
- 1 for DB replication https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-Director/10.4/VMware-Cloud-Director-Install-Configure-Upgrade-Guide/GUID-3BBE2901-6252-4DB7-970F-94901E7453D2.html
- Error 1: No search domain
-
Error 2: No reverse DNS
- Host records (A) need to be created for VCD http and VCD VMRC incl reverse lookup
- All other DNS records for vCenter, ESXi hosts and NSX
- Error 3: Anything else?
VMware vCloud Director - Adding NSX-T mananager just doesn’t work

Change the IP of a VMware vSAN node
Stupid idea, if done the wrong way, Sort of lessons learned! Don’t do it, but we’re going to do it anyway!
Change the IP-address via the GUI and all will stop working! Would be better to re-ip by adding a vmk port and switch over traffic https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/76162
But we’re going to break it and learn! Change the IP-address via vCenter (you might want to shutdown some import VMs first?)
