Capacity Planner Missing?

I swear that Capactiy Planner was built into Virtual Center 2x. But after upgrading to Update 2 on Sunday, I no longer see it. I don't see it as a plug-in either.

Am I missing something?

Re run install, do a repair. That should install it.

The capacity planner is located in the : \vpx folder

Interesting. I remember that during the install, it's crapped out near the end because it can't start the Virtual Center service. It appears to have completed everything except Converter and Update Manager at that point. So after exiting the setup, I checked the service and try to manually start it. It fails. Then I realized it was now set to start with the local system account (instead of my domain based service account.) So I changed it back, and the service starts. Re-ran the install and got the Converter and Update Manager installed.

Now I remember that when I first tested this in the lab, I had the exact same problem with the service accounts changing. Very strange. Anyone else notice this?

I'll try to rerun it again in the lab and see if the Capacity Planner pops in...
