I created from scratch, we were upgrading all the hosts and didn't really care about carrying anything over from the old VI server. Pay attention to the guest limit on the different SQL versions.

Also if your infrastructure is not large sometimes I rather build a VC from scratch and migrate everything over to it. From: Stefan Jafs [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 15, 2009 9:30 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: VMWare VC 3.5 - > 4.0 upgrade Ok, we upgraded all Hosts to v4 including the Virtual Center, last weekend, however my VC virtual machine needed some Windows updates that I applied and re-stated the virtual machine, however it refused to startup, I had a snapshoot, before upgrade and reverted back to it, So I'm now running with the old VC, I can't get hold of my consultant, What's the proper way of upgrading the VC? ___________________________________ Stefan Jafs This email and any attached files are confidential and intended solely for the intended recipient(s).
