  • 1.  Cross-vCenter vMotion + Cisco ACI

    Are there any known issues regarding cross-vCenter vMotion between vCenters in separate SSO domains, while using Cisco ACI?

    We encountered issues where VMs temporarily lost network connectivity after migrating from one vCenter to another.

    Cisco ACI is configured with on demand provisioning of networks.   So when a VM is migrating from one host to another and the vlan is not yet in use on the destination host, it will be provisioned on the fly.

    Both source and destination vCenter are in the same VMM domain.

    When the issues occurred we were performing a large scale migration, 4 clusters simultaneously (=max. 32 concurrent cross-vCenter vmotions + the regular DRS initated vMotions)

    Anyone experienced the same problem?   Or other relevant Cisco ACI related issues in combination with VMware.

    Thanks.

    Please note that VMware dont support VMM mode. You are just hitting the tip of the Iceberg of issues.
