Stuck Storage VMotion

I was in the middle of moving several virtual machines from one NFS datastore to another to perform some maintenance.

Everything worked fine until today I was trying to move 4 virtual machines and the two hosts that they reside on got disconnected for some reason.

Two of the VMs migrated properly. My problem now is that I tried to cancel the other two that were showing no progress and they seem to be stuck in the twilight zone.

One shows 28% and the other 18% and they are not moving. I cannot cancel them or anything. I went into the datastore to see if the file sizes were growing and they are not so there is definately nothing happening.

Any ideas as to what I can to do get control over these VMs again? They seem to be running fine when I go to their consoles, but if I right click them all options are greyed out.

Have you try to restart your vCenter services? Maybe the job already failed but the status not update into your VC.
