• The upgrade to vCenter

  I'm about to upgrade our cluster of vSphere ESXi 5 to 5.5, but before I did I wanted to confirm that the upgrade to vCenter there is no downtime for virtual machines hosted.  I don't plan any, but wanted to make sure that no one had met something unexpected.

  Tony

  You do not wait to have a downtime of any virtual machines hosted by the upgrade to vCenter.

  If you upgraded to v5.0, then you also need to install VMware Single Sign On (SSO), which was introduced to vSphere 5.1.

• The upgrade to vCenter Server to vCenter Server 5.1 5.1 update 1 when the SQL database is remote and vCenter Server Heartbeat is installed

  Hi guys,.

  I'm in the middle of an upgrade to vSphere 5.1 5.1 vSphere update 1. I have vCenter protected by HB and SQL on a separate computer (also protected by HB) I also run Syslog, Update Manager and Proxy authentication on vCenter.

  I've successfully upgraded HB on all 4 nodes (2 x vCenter & 2 x SQL) and started the upgrade components on the secondary according to the •vCenter Server Heartbeat 6.5 server and vCenter Update 1 Installation on Windows Server 2008 when the secondary server is virtual (PDF) http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vcenter-server-heartbeat-65-u1-installation-windows-2008-virtual-guide.pdf

  I got to step 3.c

  3. change the primary/active server role:

  a launch of the vCenter Server Heartbeat wizard configure server and click the tab of the Machine to change the server role for the current server (primary) to the active State and click Finish.

  b using the Service Control Manager, start the Server Heartbeat of VMware vCenter service.

  c using the vCenter Server Heartbeat Console, check that all the status icons on the server: summary page are green indicating that the boot process is completed and protected from all the services are started.

  d using the Service Control Manager, stop the service Server Heartbeat of VMware vCenter.

  As the vCenter service does not start, I'm stuck at this point. As far as I'm concerned, the error is quite logical. I've updated vCenter using the secondary server, and then I'm trying to connect (according to the guide) with another version that breaks down.

  If I continue with the services stop and launch the installer SSO, it is trying to perform an uninstall!

  Did I miss something in this upgrade?

The guide States now specifically to restore the vCenter database before proceeding with any other measure, this is copied below for convenience: "the upgrade of the main server of the upgrade process further guess upgrading the secondary server completed successfully. Procedure 1 before continuing the upgrade process, perform a restore of the database of vCenter Server, Single Sign-On database, VMware Update Manager database and SSL certificates that were backed up in step 4 on the secondary server. regards Ciaran

• Cannot Upgrade to vCenter 5.5 update 3 b

  Hello

  I ran into a little trouble the upgrade on the server vCenter for the 5.5 last update 3: b

  For some reason any it keeps failing when you try to install the Vmware SSO components

  Specifically, it seems to be failing on the components of Vmware JRE.

  I have attached the screen shot of the error as well as the Setup logs.

  Have looked through them and I tried to fine a solution myself, I can't seem to find that everything about the JRE components.

  I also tried to install separately from the folder vJRE on the dvd

  The server is a Windows 2012 R2 and current vCenter is RTM 5.5

  Any help will be appreciated

  @COC, you are right, I should have posted my fix as well

  It's here

  In the search for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT of the component that is failing, so for me it was that VMware vCenter Server - Java components

  Once you find the right component with the name of the product

  You will see a string value called transformations

  For me, it was pointing to the folder temp of the local user.

  I have just a right click transformations and Delete selected

  After that the installation went very well.

  He had to do the same for the TC server components too

• The upgrade to vCenter Question DB

  I'll create a new server vCenter for v5 instead of upgrading my current v 4.1.  The Act of installing vCenter 5 and say things to use my current DB upgade the DB?  Or do I need to upgrade my vCenter 4.1 for the DB upgrade, and then create the new server and that it points to the DB?

  No, you do not have update the vcenter server - when you connect the vCenter Server 5 to the existing database, he will see the database must be updated.

  I've started with VCenter 4.0 update online success in 4.1u1

  but now I can not start the service with Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service.

  I did the upgrade online in VCenter 4.1u1 with this iso file VMware-VIMSetup-all - 4.1.0 - 345042.iso and now the entire production is declining.

  I use SQL Server 2005 32-bit as the database.

  I guess it's all true by:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1022104

  http://www.VMware.com/support/vSphere4/doc/vsp_vc41_u1_rel_notes.html

  And what exactly is a failure, is the DB on a different server or living on the vCenter Server?

• The upgrade from vCenter for 64-bit

  I'm about to upgrade from version 4 to version 4.1 vcenter server and I have a few quick questions. I am a little concerned about the part of the database from the upgrade.  We currently have the database on a server remote windows 2003 and I was curious what, if anything, I have to do to the database if I use the DataMigration tool?  I have a new 64 bit server ready to go, but I'm a little curious what needs to be done to the database and it is ok to point the new 64-bit to 32-bit SQL server vCenter?  any help is appreciated.  Thanks for a great site!

• Online upgrade to VCenter 4.1 update 4.0u1

  Hi all

  I am about to the VCenter 4.0u1 only in 4.1 update on my vsphere infrastructure, the rest of the ESXi can stay in 4.0u1 since there is no performance / big improvement at all.

  I am running:

  Windows Server 2003 Standard R2 SP2 x 64

  SQL Server 2008 SP1 Standard x 64

  should I pay attention before the upgrade online of the 4.0u1 for VCenter in 4.1 in the production environment?

  any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards

  AWT

  It is a fairly straightforward improvement.  You need however is a 64-bit SQL Native Client.  Additionally, make sure that you back up your DB.

• The upgrade to vCenter 5 foundation

  Hello, everyone!

  I have several questions about upgrading to vCenter 5 foundation:

  (1) is editing Foundation vCenter is frowned upon in vSphere 6?

  (2) If a client vCenter Foundation 5 license and valid SnS, can it move its vCenter server to vCenter 6 Foundation?

  (3) if the customer has vCenter Foundation 5 license and SnS validates that lisenses must purchase for upgrade to vsphere 6?

  Please take a look at VMware KB: law Mapping for vSphere and vCenter Server which contains the official answer to your questions.
