Table 257 VM Group commands
Command Syntax and Usage
virt vmgroup <1-32> vlan <VLAN number>
Assigns a VLAN to this VM group. If you do not assign a VLAN to the VM group, the switch
automatically assigns an unused VLAN when adding a port or a VM to the VM Group.
Note: If you add a VM profile to this group, the group will use the VLAN assigned to the
profile.
Command mode: Global configuration
[no] virt vmgroup <1-32> vmap <1-128> serverports|non-serverports
Assigns the selected VLAN Map to this group. You can choose to limit operation of the
VLAN Map to server ports only or non-server ports only. If you do not select a port type, the
VMAP is applied to the entire VM Group.
For more information about configuring VLAN Maps, see “VMAP Configuration” on
page 262.
Command mode: Global configuration
[no] virt vmgroup <1-32> tag
Enables or disables VLAN tagging on ports in this VM group.
Command mode: Global configuration
virt vmgroup <1-32> vm [<MAC address>|<UUID>|<name>|<IP address>|
<index number>]
Adds a VM to the VM group. Enter a unique identifier to select a VM.
The UUID and name parameters apply only if Virtual Center information is configured
(virt vmware vcspec).
The VM index number is found in the VM information dump (show virt vm).
Note: If the VM is connected to a port that is contained within the VM group, do not add the
VM to the VM group.
