Failed to find a host for powering on the virtual machine

Hi, am fairly new to this so please excuse if I have missing information or just post in the wrong section Smiley Happy

I have one VM which always run into an error while migrating to a different host

'not allowed in current state...'

So my idea was to make an offline migration of the VM.

Now I powered off the VM and did the usual migration, choosed a different host, etc.

Migration went thru without a error.

But now the virtual machine is showing as 'inaccessible'

When I try to power on the VM it is saying

"Failed to find a host for powering on the virtual machine. The following faults explain why the registred host is not compatible"

Now, even when I try to power on the VM on the same host this error message comes.

I already tried to remove the swap.dereivename

This is what I wanted to try, but my CPU.min is saying "0"

Any ideas what I could do now? Smiley Sad

Thanks for help!

Hi,

Pl. check the host compatibility and What is the ESXi version?

Thanks
