Disconnecting the vSwitch controller
The vSwitch Controller is no longer supported. Disconnect the vSwitch Controller from your pool before attempting to update or upgrade to the latest version of Citrix Hypervisor.
- In the vSwitch controller user interface, go to the Visibility & Control tab.
- Locate the pool to disconnect in the All Resource Pools table. The pools in the table are listed using the IP address of the pool coordinator.
- Click the cog icon and select Remove Pool.
- Click Remove to confirm.
After the update or upgrade, the following configuration changes take place:
- Cross-server private networks revert to single-server private networks.
- Any Quality of Service settings made through the DVSC console are no longer applied. Network rate limits are no longer enforced.
- ACL rules are removed. All traffic from VMs is allowed.
- Port mirroring (RSPAN) is disabled.
After update or upgrade, if you find any leftover state about the vSwitch Controller in your pool, clear the state with the following CLI command: xe pool-set-vswitch-controller address=
