vcenter host name is not changing after upgraded to different to host

Hi,

Yesterday i have upgraded vcenter server 5.0 to 5.1 in my lab environment. everything went smoothly, i face few issues after upgrading to 5.1. Below issues i faced

1. vcenter service is stopped - Resolved by shutting down vcenter 5.0 server, because my SQL server is still connecting to my vcenter 5.0 server. Upgraded database for 5.1

    The host name of vcenter 5.0 is vcp.lab.com

2. vcenter 5.1 host name is vcp5.lab.com, when i connecting to vcenter server with host name or IP address still showing old vcp.lab.com at top of vcenter console

How to resolve this kind of issue. Is there any issue with certification because i have copied certification from vcp server to vcp5 server.
