When performing a vMotion, a warning like “Virtual ethernet card ‘Network adapter xxx’ is not supported. This is not a limitation of the host in general, but of the virtual machine’s configured guest OS on the selected host.” can appear in vCenter.
This prevents VM migration.
Troubleshooting:
To fix this problem:
- shutdown the virtual machine
- Remove the NIC.
- Choose a different type of network card following the VMware knowledge base article.
- Reboot VM
