Symptoms:
You may experience these symptoms:
A virtual machine running SLES 10 or SLES 11 in a virtual machine, for which SLES is selected as the guest operating system type, does not include vmxnet3 in the Adapter Type dropdown menu.
The problem is most likely to occur in virtual machines that are migrated from ESX 3.x to ESX 4.x. It might also happen in other circumstances.
