Hi All,<br />
<br />
Is there any reason as to why the sVmotion from my iSCSI VMFS data store to my NFS data store is limited to just 4x VMs at the same time ?<br />
<br />

Is this because of the ethernet MPIO bandwidth limitation, NAS IOPS performance limitation or ESXi 6 limitation ?<br />
<br />
How to increase it into its maximum value ?<br />
<br />
See the screenshot below from the QNAP network traffic and each own data store network performance:<br />

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
