vCenter upgrades

[Aggrofish]

Hello all,

Quick question, at least I hope it is!

I need to do a number of upgrades to vCenter since a recent migration to new servers.  My current version is 5.5.0 2646482

I've looked on the VMware site and there are 13 different updates for vCenter starting at 5.5.0b and ending with 5.5.0U3b

My question is it simply a case for me to start with 5.5.0b and install each one in order? Or is there another way to do it that may be easier/shorter?

Many thanks,

Ross

Going from version 5.5 to a newer build is considered an Update rather then an Upgrade. You can do a direct update to the vCenter Server 5.5 Update 3b. Please remember that - in case you are running the Windows version of vCenter Server, you cannot use the Simple Install for the update, but need to update the different components separately. Please see vSphere 5.5 Documentation Center for details.
