Had to bring this thread up again, as I'm getting close to my upgrade of View 5.

Going through the upgrade guide again and have a bit of confusion.

All my esxi hosts are on ESXI 4.1 U1. According to the Interoperatbility Maxtrix, ESXI 5 is not compatible with View 4.6.....I'm fine with this, as it just tells me that I'll have to upgrade the View side before upgrading the hosts.

At the same point, this is where it gets hairy....When I upgrade View Composer, should I also upgrade to vCenter 5.0 at the same time, IF I will upgrade my ESXI hosts maybe 2 or 3 weeks later?

To clarify, after step 1 of my View/vSphere upgrade, my environment will look this, vCenter 5.0/Composer 2.7, View Connection Server 5, ESXI hosts 4.1 U1

The other option that I could do is, only upgrade composer and leave vCenter at version 4.1 until I'm ready to upgrade my hosts. I figured it would be easier to upgrade vCenter together with Composer. Not sure which is the better option though

Any suggestions?
