Machine Moved from one cluster to another cluster

if vCAC provisioned the machine in one cluster that is mapped with the Fabric Group and then and then from vCenter VM is moved to another cluster that is not mapped with the fabric group then what would be the status of the VM in vCAC.

Normally if a VM is moved to another cluster through vCenter then the VM would show a "Missing" status in vCAC.  If that new cluster was part of the groups resources then it would find it the next time it did an inventory collection.  If that cluster was not in the resources though then I would assume it would stay in a "Missing" status in vCAC.

I think that's all correct (though I've never actually tried it), but one other thing to keep in mind.. if you manually move the VM to a different cluster, you'll need to update the reservation in use for that VM, or managing via vCAC will be, in a word.. wonky.
