I'm going through the vSphere Upgrade Guide looking forward to my upgrade from vSphere 4.0 to vSphere 4.1. My current VirtualCenter server is on Windows 2003 32-bit, and looking at the documentation I'm going to need to move that to a 64-bit server. That's fine, I can create a new Windows 2008 64bit server and follow the documentation for moving to a new server. First in the document, it identified the default locaiton of the SSL certificates as "installation location\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\SSL." I assumed that the "installation location," referred to the Program Files folder, but did not find such a folder at that location. Later the documentation tells me to back up my SSL certificates located at "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VMware\VirtualCenter." I see a *.key, *.crt, and *.pfx under the SSL folder at that location. I'm assuming these are the correct files to back up?
Yes.
Yes.
You are right.
This will make sure that all the host will connect back to vCenter server without asking the ssl certificate and username/password of the esx/esxi host
Thanks
