Cause


This will happen when there is vhv parameter enabled on the destination hypervisor under the below location:

cat etc/vmware/config | grep -i vhv

  • vhv.allow = "TRUE"
  • vhv.enable = "TRUE"

vhv is applicable for nested hypervisors and therefore vmx is checked during vMotion for this parameter.

 

Resolution


Disable the vhv parameter and reboot the host for vMotion to work fine.

Steps to be followed:

- Enter the ESXi in maintenance mode.

- ssh to ESXi

- vi /etc/vmware/config

- Comment out the below parameters in the file.

vhv.allow = "TRUE"

vhv.enable = "TRUE"

- Save and quit the file.

- Reboot the ESXi.


Impact/Risks

 

- Please ensure that no virtual machines are running since the activity will require ESXi reboot.

 

- Please keep a backup of config file before making the change.
