vCenter Scans
Once the vCenter is assigned, the switch will periodically scan the vCenter to collect basic
information about all the VEs in the datacenter, and more detailed information about the local VEs
that the switch has discovered attached to its own ports.
The switch completes a vCenter scan approximately every two minutes. Any major changes made
through the vCenter may take up to two minutes to be reflected on the switch. However, you can
force an immediate scan of the vCenter by using one of the following ISCLI privileged EXEC
commands:
Deleting the vCenter
To detach the vCenter from the switch, use the following configuration command:
Note – Without a valid vCenter assigned on the switch, any VE configuration changes must be
manually synchronized.
Deleting the assigned vCenter prevents synchronizing the configuration between the G8124 and
VEs. VEs already operating in distributed VM groups will continue to function as configured, but
any changes made to any VM profile or distributed VM group on the switch will affect only switch
operation; changes on the switch will not be reflected in the vCenter or on the VEs. Likewise, any
changes made to VE configuration on the vCenter will no longer be reflected on the switch.
