Blade Upgrade 3.5 to Vsphere

[leeroyrichardso]

I have completed a 3.5 upgrade to vsphere on our first site which uses dell 2950 rack mounts as hosts, the upgrade was relatively straight forward.

I have now started our second site and have just upgraded the vcentre.

Our second site uses blade servers as hosts, is there anything I should do differently or be aware of before doing the same process?

There is no difference in upgrading rack mount servers and blade servers (except for the form factor). Just make sure your hardware is listed in the VMware HCL.

Is there any special issue you think of, why you are asking?
