VUM - vSphere Update Manager

Hello,

I want to upgrade an ESXi 4.0 to be 5.0 at least, any way I am trying to install any version of the VUM to upgrade the system, but can't find it online ... so the question is:

Is the VUM a paid program, if not please provide me a link but if it is paid how to by one.

NOTE: I am already have a free registered account on VMWARE but can't find it or download it.

VUM is entitled as part of vCenter Server. But I'm not even sure you can use VUM to upgrade such an old version of ESXi from 4 to 5. You may have to (or want to) do that manually using an ISO.

Thank you daphnissov​,

I have watched many tutorials about upgrading, it's possible to upgrade from ESXi 4.0 and above as the article here: VMware Knowledge Base

But also I have tried to download vCenter Server but I have not could download it...:smileycry:
