VCP5-DV is the new name for what was VCP5. Here's the new set of suffixes:

-DV = Datacenter Virtualization = vSphere

-DT = Desktop = View

-Cloud = Cloud = vCloud Director

Is there any extra requirements for current VCP5 holders, in order to get the VCP5-DV designation?  Do we have to re-take the VCP5 exam?

VCP5-DV is just a rebranding of VCP5, so you are a VCP5-DV now.
