esxi 5.5 6.0

[matfra1]

Hello. First: sorry for my English...

I've two server Dell T410 and one server Dell T430.

I bought licenses for three esxi 6.0 and vCenter 6.0.

On Dell T430 I've install esxi 6.0 and I've deploy vCenter Sererv Appliance 6U1. All is ok.

My doubt is for T410. They aren't certified for esxi 6.0.

So:

try install 6.0 on Dell T410

or

install esxi 5.5 on dell T410 and I keep 6.0 on T430 with vCenter 6.0

or

install 5.5 everywhere (T410 with 5.5, T430 with 5.5, vCenter 5.5)

?

What is your advice?

Thank you

Hi and welcome

IMHO there 2 main reasons to not install vsphere in a non certified hardware:

1. Host must be in production (no matrix = no support even if installation and all functionalities works)

2. vSphere could not be installed

In every case I suggest to keep the same esxi version in the same cluster...

Regards

(and sorry for my English too)
