Update/migration - vCenter Server 5.0 on windows->; vCenter Server Applicance 6.0.0 U2?
Hello, I'm trying to upgrade vSphere for a customer of 5.0 to 6.0.0 U2. I don't foresee any problems with the upgrade of the host, but I'm having a terrible time to vCenter Server upgraded. SSL problems, inventory Service won't start/db issues, etc. This is a very simple configuration with only two hosts, a DS3524 for the shared storage and a vCenter server running on a windows virtual machine. I am simply considering implementation installation vCenter's existing disposal and replacement with a new device. What, exactly, would I lose, do this? vMotion, HA and DRS is put to the top, but nothing fancy or automated.
Thanks in advance.

Because your environment is small, I think that a better option is really build a new vCenter from scratch and then guests are leaving the former vCenter to the new... of course, you will lose all historical data (statistics, task, events) of the old host and you will need to re - create clusters on the new vCenter configurations.
Here is a KB showing how to move an ESXi to one vCenter to another: VMware KB: move a managed ESX ESXi host to a vCenter Server to a different Server vCenter

Migration vCenter database of the local instance to a remote server
Hello
My vCenter database is installed on the local server with the vCenter server. When installing without DSN was created because the local database. Now, I need to create a dedicated server to host the database but can't find where, in the current installation, I would like to change to vCenter point to the new location.
I read these KBs
KB.VMware.com/kb/7960893 - movement of the SQL Server to vCenter database
KB.VMware.com/kb/5850444 - migration vCenter Server on a different host machine
KB.VMware.com/kb/1003928 - troubleshooting the database data source used by the VirtualCenter ServerProblem is that (1) there is no DSN, (2) the registry key is not there either, and (3) I cannot find what to change in the vpxd.conf file
I am able to "migrate the database" and "can create a new dsn to point to the new location.
So, the question is where can I find the current configuration of the database\dsn.
I hope that's clear
Hi VMGenie,
The reason why it does not appear THAT DSN u is because your machine VC can be 64-bit and the vCenter uses 32-bit DSN settings.
Open the C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe folder for this exe... it should show u the DSN settings.

update of sql server 2005 service pack 3 error code 6D9E Windows update security does not accept the update
Hey lasdj,
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
If you receive Windows Update error 6d9e while installing SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 by using Windows Update, it means that the installation folders and directories are compressed or encrypted.
To fix this problem, make sure the folder locations where you are installing the service pack to aren't compressed or encrypted, or specify a different folder and then run Windows Update again.
Therefore, remove the compression of the DATA directory and run together to the top again.
Remove compression from the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server folder and see if you are able to install the updates without any problem.
See the links below for more details:

I'm Zenith one 733F error Code when I try to install the latest Windows Vista Update, which is an update to SQL Server 2005 (Service Pack 2 KB970895). This update has failed several times now.
I followed the advice given in a separate post in this forum at Ramer49 to perform a selective startup with msconfig to try to run the update with all Microsoft Services disabled. This does not solve the problem.
I spent reviewing the logfile under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG\Hotfix\SQL9_Hotfix_KB970895_sqlrun_sql.msp.log. The problem highlighted is that the Services of Services SQL2005 database program did not start. Here is an excerpt from the log file...

updates - updates has not pushed to remote clients (Windows Server 2003)
original title: critical updates
Hello
I have an Windows Server 2003 with Windows XP Pro SP3 clients/members area and allows you to push critical updates for WSUS clients.
However, updates are not pushed to the remote clients even with the connected VPN tunnel. The only time updates are pushed to these remote clients is when they visit the office and connect to our LAN.
Is there a way for remote clients to get their updates without having to remove them as a member of my domain?

Windows Update will not install the hotfix on Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 KB3122648
Hello
I tried several times to install "MS16-019: Description of the update of security for .NET Framework 3.5.1 in Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1" on a Windows Server 2008 R2, running Service Pack 1
Windows Update has always ends with 'Failure' / has encountered an unknown error. Code 80073712
The convenience store has not solved it either.
The server is not really exposed to 'outside' as such, runs in a local network, regular, small; but sometimes, a web browser may be in use.
Is there anything that can / should be done here to remedy the failure of the installation? Or free time and even not to worry about this?
It would be great to have a few strong indications here. Thank you!

Problem migrating Vcenter server from the old cluster to the new cluster?
Hey guys,.
Just came across this situation, and I don't know what to do. I pass my vcenter server older glomerulus with hosts of esx4.0, to a more recent cluster with hosts of esxi4.1. The material of host machines are different generations, and vmotion don't migrate vcenter because of the cpu sets between cluster mismatch. If I could turn off the virtual machine and migrate it would work, but since it's my vcenter Server I can't do.
Should I restore it on the new cluster?
Thanks for the suggestions/tips
Kevin
Connect directly to the ESX host using your client vsphere, vCenter vm shutdown, vCenter remove inventory, then go to the new host, browse the data store on the vCenter vm is, and add the vCenter Server inventory.
This assumes that the same storage is presented to both hosts. If this isn't the case, you will need to use winscp or something similar to copy the files from the virtual machine.

RedandBlue,
The link Shalini gave about the clean boot procedure provides detailed instructions on the use of MSConfig. I think you have just misunderstood the steps listed above. When you open msconfig, click on the button beside selective startup. Then uncheck (clear) the box "Load system services" and "Load Startup items" and then apply and restart.If you have not seen this thread , you can read through it, because it covers the same error you see.

Hello
1. is that the copy of windows is enabled?
2 is the issue limited to the installation of a security update Cumulative for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Vista (KB2699988)?
I suggest to perform the steps in the following article and check.
Method 1: run the Windows update troubleshooting tool and check.
The problem with Microsoft Windows Update is not working http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/
