Re: How to move an VM running vCenter to another ESXi host when HA isn't operational..!

ok, so we use Veeam, so I'll just need to re-add it back into the job list. cool.

yes, when you edit the cluster and tick the HA option it goes off and tries to configure the esxi hosts, but times out on all the 5.0.0 ones.

this URL descibes the problem and fix, but I simply want it moved off and the host shutdown. I can do the other vms powered down out of hours.
