I am going through the docs preparing to do my first test of converting a
V5 server to V6.3 on a test server/machine.
I am looking for details on EXACTLY what the DSMUPGRD PREPAREDB does.
Since this is a test/dry run, I don't want to do this against a live
server, just a copy of it's databases.
Zoltan,
That's exactly what we did - test on a restored copy of a v5 database. We used
restore db, but a snapshot should also work. If you have the resources, I
suggest doing this testing as it should give you a better idea of what problems
you might run into and how long it will take.
I too find the VE-book to be terminology-challenged.
1) Why does the doc show a vstorage backup server (the proxy) and also a DP
for VMWare Vcenter Plug-in Server.
Is there a requirement for these to be 2 different machines? And if so why?
2) VE supposedly takes advantage of the VMWare API
