Both of these will work in an SRM environment, though only cross-vCenter vmotion is explicitly integrated with SRM, and that is only in SRM 6.1 when used with stretched storage.

Enhanced linked mode doesn't require vCenters to use the same PSC, just that the PSCs need to be in the same domain. You are correct it would create a dependency if it required both to connect to the same which is why it's not a requirement Smiley Happy

If you used LD or cross-VC vmotion (cross-VC not in conjuction with stretched storage) for a VM protected by SRM without first unprotecting the VM it could cause problems with replication, protection groups and recovery plans. It a lot of ways it would be similar to removing a VM from inventory without first removing protection.
