using p2v to copy from one data center to another

$

I have been able to use p2v to copy from one instance of vsphere to another instance of vsphere within the same datacenter without any issues.Now i am trying to use p2v to copy from one datacenter to another. When i use the standalone converter it detects the target vsphere and shows me the directory structure including all the esx hosts and datastores. I can select the one i need and proceed from there. Everything seems to work fine until it actually tries to start the job. the helper is created and appears in the target datacenter's vsphere.. but then the process stops and it gets deleted. i can ping the target vsphere host from the originating vsphere host so i know network connectivity is there. SHOULD what i am trying to do be possible? does anyone have any ideas on what i should try differently.For the helper, I use an ip/gateway/subnet mask that is accessible from the ip of the parent VM.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

thanks!
