Hi,
I have a VM with 2 NIC's.
i want to change the state of one NIC to Connected/Disconnected
In vm.config.hardware.device, i can see the NIC's but i cannot see/change their status.
What would you recommend to do?
Thank you
-Shimon

Look into the VirtualDeviceConnectInfo object. This is where your going to be able to check if a device can be disabled and then actual disable / enable the device.
Build your spec from there and apply it to your virtual device under 'connectable'.
If you have some sample code your currently working on or an error, could probably help from there.

I'll have to get a local lab built tonight to test. I'm not able to debug this from memory, but I will try and find a solution.
