## Objective

You are using the VMware NSX-V component (Network and Security Virtualization); we inform you that this component will no longer be maintained by OVHcloud as of July 31, 2024, and will therefore be deactivated on that date.
You are using the VMware NSX-V component (Network and Security Virtualization); we inform you that this component will no longer be maintained by OVHcloud as of **July 31 2024**, and will therefore be deactivated on that date.

This guide helps you analyse your use of NSX-V features and therefore offers you different evolution scenarios: From disabling the NSX-V component to migrating to its successor NSX-T (named NSX by VMware since version 4.0).

To identify your usage of the NSX-V feature in your Hosted Private Cloud environment, you have to ask yourself the following questions:

- Am I using VXLAN?
- Am I using `VXLAN`?

We will disable NSX-V from 01 December 2023 if you are not using any NSX-V features.
We will disable NSX-V from **31 March 2024** if you are not using any NSX-V features.

Regardless of your Hosted Private Cloud range, if you want to disable NSX-V, you won't have to migrate to a new Datacentre. You will be able to keep your current resources. For the maintenance task to run properly and deactivate NSX-V, you need to make sure to clean the NSX-V environnement.
