If the host is in maintenance mode, then this is the reason why VMs could not be moved, However there are other times, when the Host is not in maintenance mode, and VMs are flagged in the SQL Database do not move me!
Sometimes, VMs are flagged in the database DO NOT MOVE!
This often occurs, if you are using backup products which flag the VM, "do not move me" whilst backups of the VM are taking place.
The only way is to remove the VM flag from the SQL tables. (or remove VM from Inventory) - which cannot be done, if the VM is powered ON!
