Hi all,
I am running IBM T-chassis blade center wit hESX3.5 update 3 and VC 2.5 update 3. My Virtual Center is running on a VM in ESX01. I could use VC to scan & redmediated all other ESX hosts. Now, I need to scan and remediate EXS01 which housed a VC Virtual machine. I don't run VMotion so I could not "live" migrate VC VM's to another ESX host then patch ESX01.
I am on travel for the next three weeks and away from the LAB so I could not do much. However, I need to provide a document on how to do it? Funny how things work? Here are my thoughts (from memory):
1. Clone VC VM's - I could load VI client into one of the ESX host - let say ESX02. But, I don't think I can "clone" the VC VM's while it is running?
2. Migrate VC VM - I don't think you can "migrate" VM while using VI client login directly to ESX host?
What other options do I have? Please advice. Thanks.
Cheers,
