Can't convert virtual disk from thin to thick in 5.1

I am attempting to convert a virtual disk from thin to thick in a 5.1 environment.  I shutdown the VM, choose migrate, on "select disk format" I choose "thick eager zeroed".  I choose the other datastore in the datastore cluster as the destination.  I watch the status move slowly to 100% as the virtual disk migrates.  Afterward I look at the disk format and it is still a thin disk.  Why can't I convert my virtual disk from thin to thick?  Why is it still in thin format after the migration?
