Two 1000V VSMs with a single VEM/ESXi Host

We have two 1000v VSMs on a Nexus 1010.  Each VSM is intended to manage a different network domain.  (as an example) vsm-1 is for the 192.168.100.0 and vsm-2 is for 192.168.200.0.  Each network domain is on its own fabric and each ESXi host has physical connections to each of the fabrics.  Everything worked fine when we added the VEM to vsm-1 and the physical ports bounded with ease.  However, when we go to add the ports for vsm-2 we get a vDS operation failed with a a vim.fault.PlatformConfigFault error.

Is the VEM to VSM ratio a one-to-one connection?

Hi James,

That is correct.

1 ESX host can only be added to 1 Nexus 1000V DVS.

Thanks,

Sachin
