Welcome to the Community,
Have a tool to help with this scenario. (http://www.vmware.com/products/datacenter-virtualization/vsphere/upgrade-center/vsphere-licensing-ad...)
The VMware vSphere Licensing Advisor allows users with vSphere 4.1, vSphere 4.0 and Virtual Infrastructure 3.5 environments to calculate and understand their vRAM usage and vRAM capacity as if they upgraded to vSphere 5.0. The tool will show you the vRAM capacity and usage for each vSphere 5.0 equivalent edition.
Discussion moved from VMware ESXi 5 to vSphere Upgrade & Install
Hi supriyavcp,
Welcome to community.
There is no direct upgrade path to from ESX 3.5 to ESXi 5.0 upgrade.
You will have to completely reinstall ESXi 5 on the host, we have detailed
information about this in our upgrade guide.
