vMotion failing Unable to access virtual disk 'Hard disk 1' from the host.

Hi all,

I’ve got an issue with vMotion. I a problem trying to migrate from one clusters Datastore to another. I get the following errors:

Unable to access virtual disk 'Hard disk 1' from the host.

Either the host is disconnected from the datastore or has insufficient privilege. Details: Unable to access file [Datastore]

the Datastore is accessable and the VMKernal adapter has vMotion enabled (and is not the management port) 

many ideas what the cause may be?

vCenter reports the host is connected however under datastores, config, connectivity it’s unmounted and I get the following error trying to mount it 

Atomic test and set of disk block returned false
