VmwareDistributedVirtualSwitchDpuFailoverPolicy

This data structure defines the failover policy for a distributed virtual switch when network offload is enabled, specifically related to the Data Processing Unit(DPU).

The active and standby uplinks are expected to be backed by different DPUs to provide redundancy. If DPU backing active uplinks fails, then the standby DPU takes over to ensure uninterrupted network connectivity.

Since: vSphere API Release 8.0.3.0

array of string

activeUplink

Optional

The name of the active uplink(s).

These uplink(s) must be backed by vmnic(s) from a single DPU.

array of string

standbyUplink

Optional

The name of the standby uplink(s).

These uplink(s) must be backed by vmnic(s) from a different DPU than the active uplink(s). An empty standbyUplink indicates that no failover action will be taken after the active DPU fails.
