So, I should have also included this in my previous post, but while I am currently focused on balancing across '2' clusters, originally I had all 6 of our production clusters in this grouping and I was able to have it migrate across other clusters without shared storage. So that being said I do not believe not having shared storage across is the issue but am still digging into it. I am going to open up an SR and will post the result of that. I appreciate the replies.

I am attempting to migrate running workloads and as I mentioned this has been supported for a long time now. You do not have to have the same storage presented to both hosts. I can perform this action manually without any issues.
You have been able to perform 'shared nothing' migrations since 5.1 if I am not mistaken? Also as mentioned I can perform these migrations manually without any errors or warnings.

I have a custom datacenter defined to merge two clusters. My goal is to utilize this to help move workloads from one over burdened cluster to a brand new cluster with nearly no load. I am receiving recommendations as expected but when taking them within Operations Manager they all fail with the below message. I have verified that I can take these actions manually from the web client without any issues. I am not sure why this is failing trying to use Operations Manager. I checked over the policy to make sure there wasn't anything I needed to tweak but did not see anything. Does anyone have any ideas here? Thank you.

So, I applied 6u2 to my environment which consists of 2 separate virtual center instances each with its own external psc connected to the same site. Everything seemed to go well until I logged into each instance and they no longer seem to see each other. I have verified that each virtual center instance is paired to it's respective psc instance and that both psc instances are connected to the same site. If I logon to the web client on both virtual center instances and navigate to my vCenter inventory on both I only see my primary site listed. Am I missing something obvious I should have done after the update?

The script in the link does work for me and I am able to pull the information on the sessions and source correctly. That being said when I run the script in this thread it does appear to terminate 'some' connections but not all. If I wait several hours between attempting to run the script it does remove some connections, but after that it always says there are none to remove. Even if I keep dropping the session time in the script. I still have tons of connections that are days old and are not removed unless manually done. Still scratching my head on why it's not working as expected for me here. The reason I am even looking into this script is to mask an issue we seem to be having with lots of idles sessions not closing out. It's not uncommon for us to see over 100 connections (active/idle). We are working to try and resolve this but was hoping to put the script in place to help out.
I don't believe that is the issue. I will keep digging around and try to figure it out. Here are a couple more views for what it's worth. Thanks for trying to help out. Apparently I ...

I don't believe that is the issue. I will keep digging around and try to figure it out. Here are a couple more views for what it's worth. Thanks for trying to help out. Apparently I am not running all of the code? I pulled the below thinking this is all I needed? ## max number of idle minutes for sessions to keep $intOlderThan = 60 $serviceInstance = Get-View 'ServiceInstance' ## get the session manager object $sessMgr = Get-View $serviceInstance.Content.sessionManager ## array to hold info about stale sessions $oldSessions = @() foreach ($sess in $sessMgr.SessionList){ if (($sess.LastActiveTime).addminutes($intOlderThan) -lt (Get-Date) -and $sess.Key -ne $sessMgr.CurrentSession.Key){ $oldSessions += $sess.Key } ## end if } ## end foreach ## if there are any old sessions, terminate them; else, just write message to the Warning stream if (($oldSessions | Measure-Object).Count -gt 0) { ## Terminate sessions than are idle for longer than approved ($intOlderThan) $sessMgr.TerminateSession($oldSessions) } ## end if else {Write-Warning "No sessions that have been idle for more than '$intOlderThan' minutes; no action taken"}

When I run this script I get a message that no sessions have been idle for over 60 minutes. I actually have many that are well over this time. I am running this against 5.5U3 without luck. If I modify the script for something less than 60 minutes it works for those idle sessions, but once it's over the 60 minutes mark it doesn't seem to see it. Very strange... EDIT: I was pretty sure it had worked earlier but it looks like its not working regardless of what I set the minute mark at. I always get the message of no sessions being idle for that period of time.

I am actually about to deploy virtual center for my lab environment in the next hour and hopefully I do not run into this issue. I deployed PSC behind an F5 load balancer this morning but hadn't had time to deploy virtual center just yet. I am using the U1 code as well. EDIT: Maybe you can SSH to the PSC and reset that password as an option?
