We will move our Virtual Empower 3 server to a new host with 6.7 vsphere version.
What should we pay attention to?
Can migration cause problems with licenses?

    What are you doing to "move/migrate?"  The level of complexity for executing that would probably change what you should pay attention to when performing it.  You say a new host, so is that to the extent of all new db server even?

    Licenses are configured to the db, so if you were moving to a completely new installation, you'd have to deactivate on the old db, then activate the same serial numbers on the new db.  Waters would be able to help with allowing activation of the current licenses on a new system until you get to the point of deactivating/decommissioning the old system if that's the case.
