21.7 Legacy Series / Re: Opnsense Vmotion hang

Yes identical hosts. The Opnsense NICs are different.
Opnsense VM has VMXNET3.
VSAN 2 node. 10Gbps direct connect. Vmotion also 10Gbps via switch trunk link.
No I don't see any logging but does hang. So maybe it does. I've tried to leverage console to review logs but it won't let me login.
I've just vmotioned like 10 times back and forth. Its working perfect with IPSEC VPNs off. So it seems to me network + vmware good to go.
Something about the arp change or ? is upsetting strongswan / Opnsense to the point where only a reboot seems to resolve. Thats after Host1 to host2 to host1.
Edit: Not necessarily requiring a full reboot - that just what I've been doing to get it functional again as no console, SSH, or HTTPS. The guest restart via vmware web console opnsense will immediately begin to respond (Although its then restarting). That's why I decided to identify which service was the cause of the hang as it was clear it was one of the first services that stop in the reboot sequence.
When its hung I've attempted to restart the strongswan service via webui but it will just hang and never refresh/respond.
