• Upgrade virtual Center 2.02 VC 2.5 on the new server. Upgrade ESX 3.02 ESX Server 3.5. and add the new ESX Server.

  Hello

  We are due to upgrade our VMWare environment. ESX 3.02 x servers virtual Center 2.02 and 3.  We have new material on which to install Virtual Center and we are also adding a new ESX Server.

  I read various guides for virtual center upgrade and watched questions on the forum, but can not see everything that relates to the way I thought to do. I want to install Virtual Center 2.5 on the new server and I would refer her to the current virtual cenre database.  Is this supported?

  I then install ESX 3.5 on my new ESX Server and add it to the virtual Center. Then I would start the upgrade / rebuild other servers using VMotion to migrate all VM the next server to be rebuilt on the new server running ESX 3.5.

  Would this work.

  What is the best way to upgrade the virtual center of new material and a new Version?

  Thank you for all the advice that can be offered.

  Kind regards.

  Yes, it is an upgrade that is supported.  Don't forget there will be an upgrade for your DB schema and it may take some time.  Just make sure that you have a good backup of your DB before you start.

  I then install ESX 3.5 on my new ESX Server and add it to the virtual Center. Then I would start the upgrade / rebuild other servers using VMotion to migrate all VM the next server to be rebuilt on the new server running ESX 3.5.

  I agree entirely, I drive rebuild is the way to go.

  Upgrade to the current version using the .iso image file.  Don't forget the license server, which is a standalone update and are located in the folder /vpx of the vCenter .iso

  Upgrade path:

  1 vCenter

  2 ESX

  3 VMware Guest Tools

  Thank you for all the advice that can be offered.

  I hope that was a little helpful as well

Now the virtual Center its ok, but when Ive tried to make the cluster, virtual center of reports me a "there is not enough licenses", and I lost the connection to the license server... any ideas?...

• Stuck to the configuration of the license server to the virtual Center

  Hi all

  I tried to configure VI3 on my laptop and did almost all the configurations below

  I created as a result of VM on my laptop on Vmware workstation 6.5

  -2 Esx 3.5 Server

  -1 open run VM SAN

  -Center Virtual Win2k3 VM

  Everything is going well so far the esx servers start in 5 minutes and SAN targets are visible. But I don't see the Vmotion option on my virtual Center Server (probably because I n, t configured license server).

  I try to add the file licesnse to the file licsencse on the server of VMware, but still no help. I din, t get any mail from vmware with licenses in so attachment.

  anyidea what can be done here?

  Thanks in advance

  Anuj

  Hello

  Okay, I think that the license server is already there.

  is how to enable vmotion

  in each of your esx hosts

  go to the tab slot-> choose the networking-> click Properties of the vSwitch that is connected to your network vmotion (it must be a network of vmkernal)-> select the vmotion network in the new window and click on edit-> click on the box where it says enable vmotion.

  do this for both servers.

• Is a new virtual Center required for deployment of Horizon view 6 / licensing issues

  Hey all,.

  Just curious to know if it is required or existing best practice to install a separate virtual Center for your environment from view of the Horizon, or if it is correct to attach it in your VC.

  Also, reading that I've done, it seems that when you buy Horizon display 6 advances you get ESXi licenses as well?  Is it true.

  When it comes to the Windows 7 license you ave h to buy anything for your VDI VMware or do you just an open license / SA with Microsoft for Windows 7/8

  I think the projections and business decisions will do that for you.   Some circles have separate teams who manage desktop and server infrastructure.  In these scenarios, you can have a dedicated instance for VDI and the office team.     In other environments, you can be a small shop where a couple of technicians do everything.   In this environment, it can be allowed to have a single vCenter.     I still hate the TI depends on the answers, but in this case it really depends on your environment and how you want to manage.

  2: based on the comparison on the site, all the editions come with vSphere and vCenter for desktop.    I read you right, but I would check with a specialist VMware licenses.

  3: Just that you have the licenses required in view and vSphere VMware wants.  They do not all control over your Microsoft licenses.

• Add Active Directory users on object permissions in Virtual Center

  Hello

  I want to give permissions for virtual machines.  Usually, it's simple.  My problem is when I list my domain users to give permissions, Virtual Center is not listing all my Active Directory users.  It's just the list users at random.  I don't see any connection between users that are listed, and between which are not listed.  I use the latest version of Virtual Center 2.5.

  Thank you

• Virtual Center Server

  Hello

  I would just like to double check that we plan to do the following:

  We want to upgrade to vsphere 4 and the first thing we will do is virtual Center upgraded version 2.5.0 in the virtual center of vphere.  After that, it may be a month or two before upgrade us the hosts.  Is there a problem to do this way?  The virtual centre of vsphere 4 will work without any problem with esx 3.5 hosts.  Users will be able to use the new vi client and connect, manage and make existing tasks with the guests of 3.5.

  The existing virtual server is the license server.  I guess all I have to do is update the virtual center with the new license?

  Thank you

  The license server will not disappear, so you just need to keep it around your 3.5 hosts, once they are gone you will add the key code in the vCenter for your other hosts, under settings-> licenses vCenter.  After the upgrade you will need the license for vCenter but not so much for ESX4 until you move in this way, then you can add them in.

• Move one virtual Center Server to another host

  I currently have a small standalone ESX server running some virtual machines in a remote office. It is connected to its own Virtual Center Server. This virtual Center Server has apparently been abandoned and is no longer in service. I wanted to add the stand-alone host on our server main virtual Center, but did not know if something had to be done before hand (move files lciensing, etc.) to simply add the host directly in the datacenter through VIC.

  Thank you

  If you have available licenses in your current environment, you can simply add the host to the.  When attempting to add a host, you will receive a message saying: it is run by another instance of vCenter you want to add it, just say Yes.

  If you get to the other instance of vCenter to disconnect the host, then your VM can drop.

  But if you have your main site to the remote connectivity, you should have problems addding it if licenses are available.

• The addition of ESXi in Virtual Center

  Hello

  When you try to add the ESXi server, it asks:

  That's what I saw in the virtual Center

  

  you're out agents from vCenter for ESX.  To add the host in question, you will have to remove another or acquire several licenses.  However you can still manage, but not in your vCenter server.
