I want to vmotion a machine to a new datastore and in the past I've done numerous vmotion tasks from server to server or datastore to datastore without problems.
When I click next through the migrate virtual machine wizard, I am chosing datastore and Production resource pool (validation suceeded) but when I choose the datastore I want in the next step, in the compatibility area at the bottom it says:
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
So I cannot click next to carry on with the validation.
I also have another machine which is Acronis VM Protect and I can't move that one either. I get the following:
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
(!) fault.SystemError.summary
(!) fault.DisallowedMigrationDeviceAttached.summary
(!) fault.DisallowedMigrationDeviceAttached.summary
I've never seen these things before preventing a move to another datastore. The vm host has full access to this destination datastore, in fact theres already a bunch of other machines running on it.
Any ideas?
