I am new to this company and product so I am learning a lot working through this.
It would seem the company is using 3.5 but has the option to use 4.0 and 4.1 as based on their licensed downloads on the vmware portal.
Would a workable plan be to install Vmware vCenter 4.1 on a separate server, then pull in the production ESXi 3.5's? As vCenter would be eval there, would it be open to my bringing in a 3rd server? move VMs to it, then remove one of the 3.5 ESXi servers?
I am trying to interrupt operations as little as possible while optimizing the setup. my plan to leverage an eval vCenter 4.1 seems to keep the production hosts churning happily while VMs are moved around.
Does this make sense or am I wrong?
Thanks!
