VMware vMotion Connectivity

I always forget the syntax for checking vMotion connectivity between hosts…

Simply put we need to ping specifically from the vMotion network to confirm any vMotion issues.

Display network interfaces (will give you the name)

esxcli network ip interface list |grep -E 'vmk|Netstack'

Check connectivity from vMotion network

ping -I vmk2 -S vmotion IPADDRESSHERE
