Duplicate Objects Concern

We are using vROPs 6.0.3.  A project is underway to migrate ESXi hosts to new vCenters, when this happens I'm concerned we will get duplicate objects appearing in vROPs (i.e. the same VM/host in the old & new vCenter).  Not sure if that will actually happen but I've heard that it may be likely.  Has anyone seen this?

If you're moving ESX hosts to a NEW vCenter, it'll get a new GUID and yes, it will represent as a new object within vR Ops. If you're simply updating vCenter, this wouldn't be a problem for you, since the object GUID stay the same.

If you find this or any other answer useful please mark the answer as correct or helpful.
