Re: Virtual machines do not support VIO storage. - error message

What version of the HP-VM software is running on your server?

 

If it's B.06.10 or later then VIO is no longer supported.  You must transition to AVIO storage.

You should be able to migrate.  This appears to be a decent white paper on the subject:
