ESX3.5 moving to VCenter4, question about datastores

[Frans_P]

Hi,

I'm about to move one of my ESX servers with a test VM running on it to a new VCenter4 server. What can i expect to happen with the datastores? The "Add host" wizard sees my VM running on it and also notices all the datastores that come with the ESX host.

Will VC4 just add the host and leave the DATASTORES for what it is or will it do some sort of upgrade?

Regards,

Joris

The datastores will stay as is. There are very minor changes in vmfs in vSphere 4 so don't expect any necessary upgrades, changes to the datastores, or requirements to create new vsphere datastores.
