VCOPS 5.0.3 Standalone Enterprise upgrade to 5.6

Hello,

Today when I upgraded a VCOPS 5.03 Enterprise to 5.6, it automatically made it Foundation licensed edition. When I check on the license on vCenter it still is associated with 5.0.3 key. So, I installed the Standalone Enterprise key for version 5.6. When I try managing the asset to change the key, I am unable to.

has anyone come across that?

The 5.6 key does appear on the added keys but I cannot associate it.

Thanks in advance

Ok, so I only needed to wait for about 4hrs.

Correct license applied and application now functional.

Except the historic data is lost

"World metrics are lost after upgrading to vCenter Operations Manager 5.6
When you upgrade from vCenter Operations Manager from 5.0.x to 5.6, all  of the historical data gathered for World before the upgrade is lost.  After the upgrade, vCenter Operations Manager starts collecting new  metrics for World and the calculated data is displayed.
Workaround: None."
