I am migrating the virtual servers between 2 physical datacenters using Virtual Center, one Virtual datacenter, 7 clusters and 15 physical blades servers running ESX 3.0.1 with all patches available on to date.

The maximum number of virtual servers I am able to migrate concurrently is 5 and everything else gets queued up. Is there any way that number can be changed to at lease 15 migrations at a time?
