Issue/Introduction

When importing virtual machines using Advanced Cross vCenter vMotion, the task progress is not displayed on the destination vCenter Server.

Environment

vCenter Server 8.x

Cause

This is expected behavior.

Resolution

Task progress is not displayed on the destination vCenter Server. Monitor the task progress on the source vCenter Server.
The "Relocate virtual machine" task progress is displayed on the source vCenter Server. 
If you choose the "Keep VMs on the source vCenter Server" option (which performs a VM clone operation), the "Clone virtual machine" task progress is displayed instead.
