Hi,
my question is, it is true that you should not perform VMotion on the tool APIC-EM after virtualization with VMWare?
And when.....why not?
Best regards

- Not true
>Why not ?
It would also , then help, if you provide the argumenting-source (info) and it's motivations.

Hallo marce1000,
thank you for your mail.
My consideration is to buy the APIC-EM. Now the only question is whether it should be bought as a hardware appliance or as an OVA. My PI3.x.x runs as a hardware appliance and I am very happy with it.
Now I heard from my CONSULTING SYSTEMS ENGINEER (SALES) that this problem exists in VMWare.
...But maybe I can ask you...
you tested vMotion on your own APIC-EM-ESXi successfully?
And after the vMotion APIC-EM runs?
Which ESXi version did you use?
Which APIC-EM version did you use?
Best Regards
Martin

From the link below I get :
In addition to acquiring a dedicated Cisco APIC-EM physical appliance with the ISO image preinstalled and tested, you can also install the Cisco APIC-EM ISO image in a supported virtual environment. You may want to do this for testing the controller within your network, prior to setting up the appliance.
- This seems to indicate that VM based solutions for APIC-EM are only intended for testing purposes and that you should go for an appliance in the end.
