I currently have two ESX 3.5 servers running along w/ Lab Manager 2.5. We didnt buy virtualcenter since we manage everything through lab manager. We recently renewed our support contract, hence allowing us to upgrade to vsphere for free. However, a few months ago while on a support call, the technician had advised us to upgrade to 4 since support for 3.5 would be obsolete. In addition, he mentioned, Lab Manager v3 required vCenter. is this correct? Do i need to buy virtual center to run lab manager? I would prefer virtual center to manage the two servers instead of using Lab manager. we have lab manager for my QA folks who require access to their VMs.
