It is absolutely possible to have vMotion on a standard switch (vSS) as well as a distributed switch (vDS).

Hello,

It's possible to do vmotion in standard vswitch. Doing vmotion standard switch/distributed switch is not matters. Refer the below requirements for vmotion,

Requirements

  • CPU compatibility.
  • vMotion interface (minimum 1 Gb adapter)
  • shared central mass storage.
  • same naming for virtual port groups.
  • sufficient resources on the target host.
