where can I find the latest vCenter appliance?

Am I the only one confused by the way VMware has their downloads setup?

I know that I downloaded an older version of the vCSA, but I'm looking for a newer version.  I think I had the 5.0 appliance and read that the 5.1 appliance uses postgress rather than DB2 which is great because I can't seem to install the 5.0 version ... Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

Hi,

VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.0.1 is not yet released for download as not able to find it in VMware download site https://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/p/activate.php?p=vmware-vsphere5-ent&lp=default

vCSA 5.0.1 is the one using PostgreSQL

I think you should wait for the official release from VMware or an update to vCSA 5.0.1

Hope the information is useful

Hi vmwaredownload,

the best site is vmware only where you will find most of the tested toosl.

Please see the below link-

The only timeframe for the vCenter Server Appliance is mentioned in the vCenter Server release notes

Note: vCenter Server Appliance 5.0 Update1 will be available later this year

Is the vCenter Virtual Appliance running on version 5.0.0 (without update) compatible with ESX 5.0.0 Update 1?
