Confirming Upgrade/Migration Apporach

[w0rmg0d]

Hi there, I am starting planning to upgrade to vCenter 6.7

Current Environment:

2x vCenter server 6.0 U3 (On Windows Server)

2x External PSC Appliance 6.0 U3

2x Update Manager servers

End goal is to be latest vesrion of vSphere 6.7 all in one appliance, reading through the upgrade/migartion documentaiton it looks like I need to follow this order, can anyone whos had to upgrade confirm this is correct please?

Upgrade External PSC Appliances to 6.7

Migrate vCenter Servers(Windows) to 6.7 Appliances

Migrate Update Manager to the 6.7 vCenter Appliances

After upgrades are complete I can converge vCenter Server with external PSC to vCenter with Embedded PSC

Thanks in Advance

The first step is to upgrade the external PSCs. Then you can upgrade the vCenter servers. I don't think you need to upgrade the VUM servers as VUM will now be part of the VCSA.

After the migration you can use the vCenter Server Converge Tool to move from the external PSCs to embedded deployments.

BTW if you have some sort of cluster right now, you can move to vCenter HA.
