To deploy the VM-Series for NSX solution,
you must install the VMware NSX plugin on Panorama.
If
another version of the plugin is currently installed, selecting
Install
removes it
and installs the selected version.
If you have a standalone
Panorama or two Panorama appliances installed in an HA pair with
multiple plugins installed, plugins might not receive updated IP-tag
information if one or more of the plugins is not configured. This
occurs because Panorama will not forward IP-tag information to unconfigured
plugins. Additionally, this issue can occur if one or more of the
Panorama plugins is not in the Registered or Success state (positive
state differs on each plugin). Ensure that your plugins are in the
positive state before continuing or executing the commands described
below.The commands described are not persistent across reboots and
must be used again for any subsequent reboots. For Panorama in HA
pair, the commands must be executed on each Panorama.
If you
encounter this issue, there are two workarounds:
Uninstall
the unconfigured plugin or plugins. It is recommended that you do
not install a plugin that you do not plan to configure right away
You can use the following commands to work around this issue.
Execute the following command for each unconfigured plugin on each
Panorama instance to prevent Panorama from waiting to send updates.
If you do not, your firewalls may lose some IP-tag information.
request plugins dau plugin-name <plugin-name> unblock-device-push yes
You
can cancel this command by executing:
request plugins dau plugin-name <plugin-name> unblock-device-push no
The
commands described are not persistent across reboots and must be
used again for any subsequent reboots. For Panorama in HA pair,
the commands must be executed on each Panorama.
