Hi gurus
as you can see from my post I am still new to VMware, so go easy on me.
I need to lower my cluster EVC from Ivy to Sandy , but all I read , request that ALL VM be turn off, but my question is, if my vcenter is a VM and is turned off along with all VM ,how do I get to cluster EVC and change the mode .Vcenter is turned off.
Thanks and sorry for my confusion

It depends on how much "adv" options, permissions you have enabled on the old cluster. Maybe your backup is also focus on the cluster name and object id. So think about if the old cluster object need to survive or if you just can create a fresh one which later take the old name.
If you havent patch your Hosts against Spectre/Meltdown do it befor you starts because it have effects on EVC!

Thanks for jumping into this, but I already have EVC enable on my cluster and is set to Ivy Bridge, what I need to do is lower the mode to Sandy Bridge and it tell me all VM has to be turn off, that is my dilemma.
Thanks again
