Dear all,

I tried to move some VMs for making some RAM free but also VMotion does not work

You don't provide any real information. Check the log files on the hosts as well as your storage device for possible clues. Is the VM very active?

If you open the datastore browser for the target datastore, are the file sizes for the files in the appropriate subdirectory increasing? Also, how large are the virtual disks you are trying to migrate? Sometimes this process can take a while depending on disk configuration and disk size.

I found the reason.

Basicly the host needed RAM, i moved some VMs to another hosts and it worked.

Cheers
