Environment

SDDC Manager

VCF 5.2.X.X

Cause

With the release of VMware NSX 4.0. N-VDS is not supported for ESXi hosts,

When upgraded to NSX-T to later versions, it could leave stale entries for these NVDS.

Resolution

Identify the TransportNodeProfiles with NVDS switch which are not in use.

Using NSX-UI, Delete TransportNodeProfiles with NVDS switch.

Restart failed host add task from SDDC manager.

Additional Information

If need assistance to identify TransportNodeProfiles with NVDS switch which are not in use, connect with NSX-T team on a support case.
