Error relocating virtual machine in VMware

Got this error while migrating to a new datastore:
A general system error occurred: Storage VMotion failed
to copy one or more of the VM's disks. Please consult
the VM's log for more details, looking for lines
starting with "CBTMotion".


Problem was the block size was different on the new datastore. One of the disks had a larger block size. You can remove the datastore and format it with a different block size.
