Hi,

VCSA Upgrade from 6.7 to 7.0U3, Where is the option to copy Tasks, Events and Performance Metrics in background?

Thanks

On the Select migration data page, choose the types of data that you want to transfer from the old appliance to the new, upgraded appliance.
A large amount of data requires more time to be transferred to the new appliance. For the minimum upgrade time and storage requirements for the new appliance, select to transfer only the configuration data. If you are using an external Oracle database, you can also choose to migrate historical and performance metrics data in the background after you deploy and start the new vCenter Server appliance.
