Transfert Vm on the other datastore

Hi,
  I have a big problem with the vm transfert on the other datastore.  I use vmware 6.7 on in hp Prolian 1080 attach on hp MSA 1050.  When I process the transfert via vcenter, the task block at 30% since  23 nov at 7:45 .  The vm is off.    now is 24 nov 8:32.  Always block at 30%, why?

 

Thanks

Hi,

When you are trying to storage VMotion, the copy process usually starts at 30% and the progress bar will stand there for as long as it takes for the process to complete before it goes up. So just leave the task running. the processing time depends on the size of your virtual disk on your VM and the total throughput of your storage from source to destination.

But if you want to stop your task and power your VM on, you can do it from your ESXi CLI.
