    Perhaps a bit more info would help.

    vSphere version?

    Ever done it before?

    VM have snapshots?

    Guest OS?

    Datastore type?

    Not sure which procedure you tried - if necessary you can always expand flat.vmdks with dd.
    Does not make sense if you have snapshots but it WORKS ALL THE TIME.
