Hello,
I use a hybrid vSwitch network as well. vMotion will work if the following is true:
The network setup for the vMotion network is correct on each host
You can vmkping each vMotion network IP across hosts
vMotion is fairly straightforward so if vMotion is Not working then you need to check into your networking where vmkping is your friend. Can you vmkping the vMotion IP on each host from each host? If you cannot communicate between hosts then your network is not correct. I would
Verify the IP addresses used for vMotion are correct
Verify the vmkernel adapter used for vMotion is properly assigned to vMotion and not FT or management
Verify the gateway for the vMotion network is correct
Verify that that all vMotion network cables are correctly connected to each physical Switch
If there is a router between the machines on the vMotion network make sure it routes properly
Best regards,
Edward L. Haletky
