Both (source and destination) vCenters need to be within the same SSO domain (pointing to same PSC or replicated PSCs).

Additionally you need L3 connectivity on vMotion network between hosts, vSphere Enterprise Plus license for your hosts and appropriately set up L2 networking for your VMs on both sides.

Hope this helps.
