    Hi

    I have a  on Nic team . I need to create multiple Hyper-V virtual network adapters on the host . I can only create one virtual switch. It doesn't let me create multiple virtual switches on one team . Is there anyway I can create multiple Nics host OS.

    Thanks

    You should use a nic team in an ideal world rather than a team .

    Which can be achieved by the below script. This assumes Team1 is the name of your nic team. Rest of the stuff is all created automatically .

    I haven't tried this on a single nic . I presume this is also achievable .

    New-VMSwitch -Name "VMNET" -MinimumBandwidthMode Weight -NetAdapterName "Team1"

     Rename-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "VMNET" -NewName "server2"
     Add-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "Cluster" -SwitchName "VMNET"
     Add-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "Migration" -SwitchName "VMNET"
    Add-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "ISCSI" -SwitchName "VMNET"
     
    Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan -ManagementOS -VMNetworkAdapterName "server2" -Access -VlanId "317"
     Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan -ManagementOS -VMNetworkAdapterName "ISCSI" -Access -VlanId "110"
    Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan -ManagementOS -VMNetworkAdapterName "Migration" -Access -VlanId "24"
    Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan -ManagementOS -VMNetworkAdapterName "Cluster" -Access -VlanId "26"

     Set-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "server2" -MinimumBandwidthWeight "5"
     Set-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "Cluster" -MinimumBandwidthWeight "20"
     Set-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "Migration" -MinimumBandwidthWeight "30"
     Set-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -Name "ISCSI" -MinimumBandwidthWeight "30"
     Set-VMSwitch "VMNET" -DefaultFlowMinimumBandwidthWeight "10"

    Actually, with PowerShell you can create a 'team' with a single NIC and then use the PowerShell commands you have shown above to create multiple vNICs for different VLANs on that 'team'.

    Hi mumtaz,

    As far as I know, there is no such setting.

    However, you can try to post the question in our SCVMM forum for a workaround.
