Migrating vCenter to a new cluster

Good morning, all!

Just a quick check. I need to move one of my 6.5 VCSA machines to a new cluster, made up of older hosts than the current host. Live vMotion won't work, so I need to shut down the appliance, go to one of the hosts in the new cluster, browse to the datastore and folder with the VCSA, and start the VCSA from there. Yes?

Thanks!

That should basically work. What I'd suggest is that you create a snapshot prior to powering on the vCSA on the new host, so that you can revert to it in case something unexpected happens.
