Hi, this is excellent feedback. The datacenter issue is a known one, and probably one worth adding more clearly to the guide. It makes logical sense (of course!) to have the VMs in different datacenters, but that's not how vCenter works today. It's feedback we will work with VMware on as well. So, for now, they do have to be part of the same datacenter, which is confusing.
One way to manage all this is using VMWare Orchestrator, which, although it's amazingly complicated to setup (mostly because of its LDAP requirement), makes automating and keeping track of where VMs are a little more manageable.
What you would like, however, to migrate between datacenters, is not something I've been able to get to work. Because this keeps coming up, I'll look into it some more.
