Redeploy vShield Edge
If vShield services do not work as expected after a force sync, you can redeploy the vShield Edge instance.
Procedure
1 In the vSphere Client, select Inventory > Hosts & Clusters.

3 Click the Network Virtualization tab.
4 Click the Edges link.
5 Select a vShield Edge instance.

Click the More Actions (
) icon and select Redeploy Edge.
The vShield Edge virtual machine is replaced with a new virtual machine and all services are restored. If
redeploy does not work, power off the vShield Edge virtual machine and redeploy vShield Edge again.
NOTE Redeploy may not work in the following cases.
n
Resource pool on which the vShield Edge was installed is no longer in the vCenter inventory or its MoId
(identifier in vCenter Server) has changed.
n
Datastore on which the vShield Edge was installed is corrupted/unmounted or in-accessible.
n
dvportGroups on which the vShield interfaces were connected are no longer in the vCenter inventory or
their MoId (identifier in vCenter server) has changed.
If any of the above is true, you must update the Moid of the resource pool, datastore, or dvPortGroup using a
REST API call. See vShield API Programming Guide.
