Hi LucD
The script below works fine, however if i run this it will kick off all Vmotions at the same time "RunAsync", because of this I manually comment the VMs and send in batchhes of 50 VMs to migrate at one time
And that sorts the problem. But due to this limitation I have to sit and wait until i complete 1000's of VMs
Is there a way i can tell that at one time migrate 50 VMs and once thats completed kick off the next 50 and next 50 until it finish all vMotions
Please advise
