Hi There,
What would be the best way to move several esxi hosts from one vCenter server (7.0.3) to a new vCenter Server created on a host which is in a different location ? (not clustered)
Initial idea was to setup enhanced linked mode, but unsure if this would provide the redundancy / ability to decommission the initial vCenter server.
Thanks
here it is better to go with traditional method
ELM's value becomes more apparent in environments where ongoing management and visibility across multiple vCenters are required not for mogration
@seanyp Just hosts, or VMs as well? If the latter, make sure all your networking is in place, and tested before moving anything onto it.
My take is you could use the opportunity to upgrade the hosts to ESXi 8 (assuming the hardware supports it). Especially considering general support for vSphere 7.0 ends next year (2nd April 2025). Kill 2 birds with one stone so to speak.
HTH 😊
