Post Vcenter 5.0 upgrade installation of SQL
We are looking to perform a new installation of Vcenter Server 5.0. Now we have only 3 guests and a few VM so we will install SQL 2008 Express to us operational. Our question is weather or not, it is possible to upgrade SQL after installation. We are looking at a few options as SQL goes, but we will probably install an instance on a separate hardware and pointing the Vcenter on this one. We want to just make sure that this is possible.
Yes, you can detach the database and then move elsewhere, or take a backup copy of the database and restore it elsewhere. Then, point the ODBC connection in vCenter for the new home of the database.
See you soon.

vCenter 6.0 5.5 upgrade installation simple and external PSC supported?
Hello people,
Everything I have read so far indicates that an upgrade to vCenter 5.5 simple installation on R2 W2K12 6.0 only supports a PSC facility incorporated during the upgrade.
See page 25 of the Upgrade Guide.
Notice also mentioned it here:
Page 8 of the deployment guide mentions the same, embedded installation of MCS during the upgrade of a simple installation.
https://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/Techpaper/VMware-vCenter-Server6-deployment-guide.PDF
Just to confirm, is there a process taken support to upgrade a simple installation of vCenter 5.5 to 6.0 and the creation of a PSC external?
Thank you

What is upgrade is, at present, there is no method of support available to achieve this goal.

The upgrade of Microsoft SQL SERVER 2005 Express
I think I know the answer to that, but I need to confirm. I have an environment vSphere 4.1 and am planning on the upgrade to vSphere 5. When I installed vsphere 4.1, I used the Microsoft SQL SERVER 2005 Express database because I didn't have a license and my environment is low. The question I have is that if I upgrade to vSphere 5 that comes with Microsoft SQl 2008 express edition installation will improve my SQL 2005 Express?
Thanks for your help.

I don't believe it - I believe that you use on the vcenter data migration tool to move data from sql 2005 to sql exp 2008 exp - there steps http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-upgrade-guide.pdf

How to configure the installation of Lookout as he ignores the installation of SQL Express 2005?

Thank you.
OK - it worked.
However, for 64-bit installations, I had to use the WOW of SQL Express 2008 versions, because, the Citadel is a 32-bit database and installation of 64-bit native versions would not allow an upgrade of the Citadel of Instance.
Thank you.

Nexus 1000 - vCenter 5.5 upgrade to 6.0 - official steps?
I tried to find appropriate measures to upgrade to vCenter 5.5 to 6.0, but so far have not found a good guide.
We are already in N1KV 5.2 (1) SV3 (1.5 b) due to security bugs, but now we need to plan the upgrade to vCenter 6.0
Here is my plan:
1 put level vCenter and VUM - is there a necessary step to reconnect N1K SVS to vCenter after the upgrade?
2 uninstall ESXI 5.5 VEM
3 upgrade ESXi to 6.0
4. install VEM
Does this sound correct? Or y at - it a document that talks about this?
I looked at the utility to upgrade to http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/Website/datacenter/nexus1000/up...
However, it assumes you are a N1K upgrade while upgrading vcenter.
We only make the upgrade to vCenter.

Serial number lost cs, cannot use cs 4 upgrade installer
Try to install CS 4 (upgrade installer) on a new install of Snow Leopard. Installer looking for a prior registered product. I had installed CS 4 years, when I had been using CS. No longer have the installation of CS in place so the installer can not find. And I can't seem to locate the original disks for CS. In my view, need go back nearly 8 years, maybe more. What can we do in this case to the Setup program install? Thank you.
You must have installed the software or have the serial number of the previous version. Although it is unlikely due to the age of the product, you can check your Adobe account online.
An Alternative might be to contact Adobe Support by chat and see if they will help you. I don't know if they're fine.
