Hello,
We are upgrading an vsphere 7 Cluster to vSphere 8-0 Update 3e.
the Cluster consist of 6 identical Lenovo SR650 V2 systems equipped with a NVIDIA A16.
Network is 2 x 25GE in a portchannel
The NVIDIA Grid Version on the ESXI 7 Server is 15.4
The NVIDIA Grid version on the ESXI 8 Server is 16.10
vMotion of VMs with vGPU (NVIDIA_a16-2b) between ESXi 7 host works flawless as expected.
vMotion of VMs with vGPU (NVIDIA_a16-2b) from ESXi 7 host to ESXi 8 Hosts fails with an error
Offline Migration of powered off VMs from ESXi 7 hosts to ESXi 8 Host is possible and the VM can be powered on without problems.
Offline Migration of suspended VMs from ESXi 7 hosts to ESXi 8 Host is possible and the VM can be powered on without problems.

vMotion of VMs with vGPU (NVIDIA_a16-2b) between ESXi 8 host works flawless as expected.
Error Message(s)

Any clues?
