vMotion network connectivity validation

Hi There,

This article will help you in validating the vmotion network connectivity between the hosts. I came across this validation while working on host expansion.

 Below is the command can be used by just replacing the IP address and vmkernel of vmotion .

[root@esx01.syed.in:~]esxcli network diag ping -I vmk1 --netstack=vmotion -H 172.18.2.102

Note: vmk1 was used for vmotion in my case.

vmk1 of host01 : 172.18.2.101

vmk1 of host 02 : 172.18.2.102
