- MOVED events are not propagated when the VM is moved to a host in vCenter that is not managed by Abiquo. The VM will remain with the last known state. Then:
- If the destination host is added to Abiquo, a MOVED event will be generated properly.

- dvSwitch : Abiquo will only allow you to change the Network Service Type of a dvSwitch if there are no VMs deployed on any of the hosts attached to that dvSwitch.

If you vMotion a VM to the same host and you just change the destination datastore, this will work in vCenter and Abiquo will detect it when it synchronizes the VM definition. You can set the frequency of this check with the abiquo.vsm.vmsyncfrequency.vmx_04 property. See Abiquo Configuration Properties#vsmconfiguration properties#vsm
vMotion requires the following configuration as explained below:
