File location problem after moving vm's from vmware to hyper-v cluster

I migrated some VM's from VMware esxi to hyper-v 2012r2. When I run the validation report a few of the vm's come up with this warning.

The following virtual machines have referenced paths that do not appear
accessible to all nodes of the cluster. Ensure all storage paths in use by
virtual machines are accessible by all nodes of the cluster.

Virtual Machine Storage Path Nodes That Cannot Access the Storage Path

Virtual Machine Webserver C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Hyper-V All

Due to this issue, live migration fails. I need to get them in the proper location, C:\ClusterStorage\volume1. What is the best way to fix this problem as I don't see anything obvious.

Thanks.

Do you have migrated VM's disks and configuration file located in default location? You can check them in Hyper-v settings. If they are on different location, then move those VM's to default location that is configured in hyper-v settings.

By the way, did your VM come up after migration? You can probably trying storage migration to the default location as I stated above.

Thanks,
