Upgrade from 5.1 to 5.5 tips precision required please

Hello

I hope someone can answer this in clear simple terms.

We have Vcenter Server 5.1 build 799731

The vcenter server is sitting on one of the 3 ESX host

3 ESXi hosts are 5.1.0 799733

All 3 are in a data center called SSS in a data center of SSS we have two clusters called

Construction of 1 and 2

two of the ESXi servers are in building 1 and the other is in building 2, they are two of only separate physical locations a couple hundred yards but still separate but on the same subnet LAN etc. two buildings connected by fiber.

We are fully licensed for HA and tolerance to failures and Vmotion etc.

A QUESTION THAT WE HAVE WITH THE UPGRADE, OR AT LEAST I GUESS HER QUESTION I COULD DECEIVE ME, BUT THATS WHY IM ASKING HERE.

We are a 24/7 operation, and it's a huge, huge deal for disable us some of the VM guests running on some of 3 guests.

We VMotion can so the guests during a host, then update this host empty 5.5 then back through vmotion guests

or

Should guests be on the host when it is upgraded to 5.1 to 5.5 so they are captured in the process of upgrading and upgrades themselves.


We have not installed upgrading Manager I just physically getting by popping the CD in each of the 3 hosts one at a time as we have only 3

I did a lot of host upgraded propagated and have never seen this issue. Do not upgrade just the VMware tools and hardware virtual until all your hosts are upgraded and you should be ok.

    Hi BhaskarChaudhary

    Make sure that your system is compatible with Windows 10. Check out the link.  https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Windows-10-specifications#sysreqs

    Also check this before installing Windows 10 on PC.  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Insider/wiki/insider_wintp-insider_install/how-to-10-tips-before-installing-the-latest/4fbec413-FED4-4A18-B1DE-399a2d1e2a3a
    And if your system is compatible with Windows 10 then, I suggest upgrade you to Windows 10 through ISO files.

  • Upgrade from 1.1.4 to 1.2 (VMWare) ISE

    We intend to do an update on our runing EHT on VMWare. Our current version is the 1.1.4 and we expect upgrade to version 1.2. According to the published notes, 1.2 works on 64-bit and we currently use 32 bit on our ISE. I have red all the release notes and upgrade of Cisco and all guide does not include the process to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit. I created the project for the upgrade plan, here's what I think for the upgrade. Create a backup of ISE 1.1.4 install ISE 1.2 of new virtual machines and then restore the databases of 1.4 and then will upgrade the databases to version 1.2.

    Hello

    You can run the stright upgrade Installer v1.2 takes care of the conversion from 32 to 64 bits.

    Edit: You will need to change to RHEL 5 64-bit RHEL 5 32-bit host operating system.

    What is a stand alone ISE or a depoymentof more then one?

    If you have a deployment, you can start with your secondary node of PAN (admin). When finished high school announces that it is v1.2 and when you upgrade the next node, an NHP, it is conect Pan automatically in high school

    There may be problems during the upgrade to ISE, but with my last customer goes to version 1.2, everything worked as it should.

    But I have to prepare for the worst with DB Backup, backup of certifiactes + pvk, having access to administrators AD etc.

    Tip is to copy the upgrade file to the local disk and run the upgrade from there and reset the DB on the PSN knots to shorten the time of the upgrade.

  • Lack of Configuration section in VAMI, vCenter active watch is not Accessible after upgrade from 5.5 to 5.8

    Hi all!  I'm having a bit of a problem that I can't find a solution for anywhere.

    I have a lab with two boxes of vcsa under 5.5 U2d, and wanted to move to 5.8 SRM.  I started the VRA 5.5.1 (I do not remember, real version number which was with MRS 5.5.1), mount the ISO 5.8 on both sides, restarted both, took the update of the CD (following the official update steps), but after the restart, the two vCenters show "enabled (not available)" and still list it as 5.5.1.

    I have validated the RV service is running.  I have been following this thread, regenerated certificates for the TWO vCenters & TWO VRAs: vsphere upgrade from 5.5 to 5.8 Server replication enabled (not accessible) has yet no joy.

    I checked the CROWD and the IP address is correct.  I tried to check /opt/vmware/hms/conf/extension.xml for the thumbprint and the file does not exist on each box, the only thing it is extension - template.xml.

    On the one hand, I have reset the vCenter database (/ usr/sbin/vpxd - d of VMware KB: reset the vCenter Server repository embedded for vCenter Server Appliance 5.x ), deployed a new VRA 5.8, and he had to register very well.  It's then it dawned on me what missed me: almost all the Startup Configuration where you specify the vCenter (see attachment)

    For grins, I recorded the VRA 5.8 of the 'old' vcsa work and tried to save it to the 'new' vcsa, which he could not with a lot of what looked like errors, assuming that because of 'new' vcsa already having a recorded SOAP VRA.  I re-recorded it back to the 'old' vcsa and is happy.  Installed SRM 5.8 (uninstalled 5.5 because I started with a clean database in the vcsa) and all is well on the side of the 'old '.

    I'm trying not to go this route on the 'new' side, as I a VDS, vSAN and twice as many hosts, so I won't recreate the vDC, cluster, add guests, etc.  I copied to /opt/vmware/hms/conf/extension-template.xml /opt/vmware/hms/conf/extension.xml and restarted.  Footprint arises, but still no configuration tips.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks for your reply. You said that the VRA is on a cluster, East of thatcluster HA-enabled? Because where HA must restart the VRA on another host, it does so through the ESX host and this could have emptied the OVF environment. And to even you'll always a working configuration until you start the upgrade or you try to perform any operation through VAMI configuration page. To be on the safe side, I think before upgrade, you can power off and then turn the unit on (simple restart is not enough) to make sure that the EPS of the FVO is recreated.

  • Upgrade from Siebel 8.1 Production & Data Guard

    Hello
    We will have new material available for Siebel upgrade 8.x pre-production several months in advance. This material will be the same of prodcution with regard to size. We plan to use 'DataGuard' for Siebel 77 DB (2.5 to) replication on the new Siebel 8 DB pre-production server. My requirement is to have minimal downtime!

    I'm thinking next steps upgrade before the deployment weekend.
    1. take cold Siebel 77 PROD DB Backup
    2 database copy 77 PROD to the new pre-production Siebel 8 DB
    3. install and gateway of Siebel server, server Siebel, Siebel utility of database server and the Siebel web server extensions
    4. install the database schema and seeds
    5 import the new repository of Siebel 8
    6 test the application
    7 stop Siebel application and get ready for deployment to production

    Deployment weekend production steps:
    1. stop Siebel 77 application and DB
    2. start Siebel 77 DB data replication in the new Siebel 8 DB
    3. after the replication is complete, start Siebel 8 application.

    Can one that the steps above from the end of week of the production deployment might work, which means "DataGuard" replication to keep my DB Upgrade from Siebel 8 intact and wipe it away? I try to avoid the installation/configuration/upgrade to level the application during the deployment weekend.

    I'm lost and confused on how the upgrade of production will work. I have read several messages online, upgrade guides and haven't met good information/help for upgrade of production, all the support, the items are for the modernization of development environments!

    Please note that the 'Golden Gate' is not an option, do not have a budget for that!

    I'd appreciate any help.

    Thank you
    PM

    Now that you have added the stages of the upgrade, it is logical but there is no doubt some additional steps are required as you progress...

    regarding the statement:

    "I think that 'install & configure the Siebel servers' can be done before weekend of deployment without a database active, can anyone confirm that for me?"

    It might indeed and this could also be done on a copy of your development DB Upgrade environment. Siebel installation is not dependent on your DB, but there are some entries in your DB, which can be Siebel specific server, look at the guide for the copy of production if you don't understand what I mean. Restoration of Production environments in the Test [477772.1 ID] environments. If you move servers during the upgrade this guide will give you some tips too to areas that you need to consider.

    I just upgraded from 17.0.9esr to 24.0esr. At first I noticed that download statusbar has not shown all downloads when they have been downloaded, so I decided to remove it. That has not changed anything because I do not see in tools-> Downloads tab. I tried to play with the browser.download.useJSTransfer and the browser.download.useToolkitUI, I've seen in my search, but they do not help. I also tried to change the options of the private browsing mode, and although I can see that downloads fail, I don't see when they download. I don't know what is happening.

    I have reset the settings of firefox and it seems to be fixed. I could not identify any option that could have been the cause. He could download status bar. I no longer need because new download managers to work pretty well.

  • Why the scroll bar arrows disappeared from Firefox when I upgraded from Fedora 17 to 18 years?

    Recently, I upgraded from Fedora 17 to 18 of Fedora. Before the update, Firefox worked perfectly. Now, the arrows have disappeared of the scrollbar on the right. How can I get back them?

    This problem is not moved in other applications - in Firefox.

    Alternatively, you can check for problems with the file localstore.rdf.

    Do you have a scroll bar (that is, only the buttons have disappeared)?

    You use the default theme of Firefox (Tools > Modules > appearance)?

    You can attach a screenshot?

    Use a type of compressed as PNG or JPG image to save the screenshot.

    You can try to check if another theme or icon pack Linux brings them back.
