If you do nested ESXi with something like freeNAS or Openfiler that runs an iSCSI target or a NFS export, you can use that as shared storage for the nested ESXi's and test vMotion there.

Nas4Free is less daunting compared to FreeNas and if you got a Windows Server in your lab you could even use the built in ISCSI target.

I use Starwind Virtual SAN to present some of the empty space on my workstation as iSCSI storage to my ESXi boxes (physical and nested virtual).
