Data Object Description

The HostProxySwitch is a software entity which represents the component of a DistributedVirtualSwitch on a particular host.

Properties

Name Type Description
autoDeployOwned*xsd:boolean

A flag indicating whether the VDS is created specifically for vSphere Auto Deploy on this host. This is a temporary switch created by the ESX network plugin to restore the network connectivity to the vCenter. If this flag is not set, it implies that it is not created for vSphere Auto Deploy.

The configured number of ports that this switch has. If configured number of ports is changed, a host reboot is required for the new value to take effect.

Since vSphere API Release 5.0
dvsNamexsd:string

The name of the DistributedVirtualSwitch that the HostProxySwitch is part of.
dvsUuidxsd:string

The uuid of the DistributedVirtualSwitch that the HostProxySwitch is a part of.
ensEnabled*xsd:boolean

Is ENS enabled on this switch

Since vSphere API Release 7.0
ensInfo*HostProxySwitchEnsInfo
