Are your ESXi hosts in a Cluster or not? 

If yes - remember to disable HA and DRS first. I would suggest changing first vCenter. In the end ESXi hosts. 
ESXi hosts could change their status to disconnected or not responding - simply re-add them in vCenter.

Thank you @maksym007  for the reply,

Yes, ESXi is in a cluster with HA and DRS enabled.

i will change vCenter and then ESXi. But will that cause any issue to the DR vcenter which is in linked mode?
