Hello,
I have a vCenter appliance I'm upgrading, I go through the process, everything works fine until after importing the data from the source vCenter instance. So, stage 1 goes fine, stage 2 goes fine until after the original vCenter is shut down. The original vCenter is shutting down before it continues past that. I then get this error.
Error setting network. Details : 15/06/2020 16:51:38 [ERROR] Cannot run /sbin/ifup eth0 command. Unknown error. Return code : 256 output: Make sure the interface is down or not assigned any IP eth0 is DOWN or not assigned an IP. Bringnig eth0 up... Can not find the manual filename, let us search for the auto filename Performing duplicate address check for IPv4 address 10.193.252.229 [1;31mError: IP already exists in the network [0;39m Unable to set the network parameters
Failed to set network
The IP is the source vCenter appliance. It is shut down while the wizard still says it's shutting down the source. I'm not sure what's happening.
That's a "back in time" upgrade which is not supported. You'll have to wait for the next version of vCSA 7 for that path to open up to you.

Though that appeared to be the issue. I tried when the newest version came out and had the same issue. Not I'm not sure what's going on.
