Create Temporary Standard Switch Host → Networking → Virtual Switches → Add Standard Switch. Name: vSwitch-temp, add vmnic2 as uplink → Add Create Port Group and Migrate vmk2 to Standard Switch Create a Port Group (for example, Temp-PG) on vSwitch-temp. Host → Configure → Networking → Virtual Switches → Select vSwitch-temp. Migrate VMkernel Adapter → Select vmk2 → Assign to Temp-PG → Finish. Migrate vmk2 back to vDS Host → Configure → Networking → Virtual Switches → Select DVS. Migrate Network Adapters → Select vmk2 → Assign to DVS Port Group → Finish. Remove Uplink from Standard Switch Host → Networking → Virtual Switches → Select vSwitch-temp Edit Settings → Remove vmnic2 → Save Reassign the vmnic Back to vDS Host → Configure → Networking → Virtual Switches → vDS → Manage Physical Adapters.
