Hi,
im Thomas and new to VMware products. However, i have to migrate serval VMs to a new datastore, including the vCenter VM.
This is a productive HA with around 100 plp working on it.
Environment
VMware vCenter Server 4.1.0
VMware vSphere 4 Enterprise
HA Cluster
VMware DRS: On
VMware HA: On
VMotion
Hosts:
2x HP Proliant DL 380 G7 (each 2 ports FC HBA) (24 CPUs)
2x HP 8/8 SAN Switch
(s1) 1x HP P2000 G3 FC 4GBit Storage 22x 300GB 10k 2,5" HDD Dual Controller 4 Paths (2 LUNs each 1,77 TB)
(s2) 1x HP P2000 G3 FC/iSCSI 8Gbit Storage 12x 1TB 3,5" HDD Dual Controller 2 Paths (3 LUNs, each 1,77 TB)
All hosts can access all datastores.
Status
I have successfully migrated all customer VMs from (s1) to (s2).
There is one VM left to migrate: the vCenter VM.
After searching i found this Vmware KB:
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=100462...
Question
Do i have to migrate the vCenter to the (s2), like explained in the VMware KB or am i able to migrate it using the vSphere Client?
If you need more details, let my know.
Regards,
Thomas W.
