#Requires -Version 5.1 <# JbTecWiz Support Centre -- generated fix script Fault : Virtual machines lose network after a host change Fix : Make the switch names match across every host Source: https://jbtecwiz.com/support/srv-clu-vm-network Run as : Elevated PowerShell Expect : 40 minutes Risk : medium Reversible : yes WHEN THIS IS THE RIGHT FIX Machines lose network on one host only. HOW TO UNDO IT Switch names can be renamed back. This script walks the fix one step at a time and asks before each one. Steps with no command are things you do yourself -- it prints those and waits. Run with -DryRun to print without executing. -------------------------------------------------------------------- NO WARRANTY - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK This script is provided by JbTecWiz as-is and with no warranty of any kind, express or implied.
