The IP address didn't change and it is the same as the source vCenter Server. The new vCSA is now reachable at the same DNS name or IP address of the source vCenter Server.Īfter logging to the new vCSA (the HTML5 client works more much better now and provides most of available features) you can notice the old vCenter Server still available and in a powered off state and of course the just deployed vCSA.

#Vcenter 6.5 stuck loading cluster manual#
When the vSphere DRS has been set to Manual you are ready to begin the upgrade procedure. Access the vSphere DRS section under Services and set DRS Automation to Manual then click OK to confirm. VSphere 6.7 upgrade vSAN 6.6 to 6.7 - pt.4īefore proceeding with the upgrade, the vSphere DRS feature in the source vCSA must be disabled or set to manual to avoid issue with the vCSA during the upgrade procedure.įrom the vSphere Web Client, right click the cluster and select Settings. VSphere 6.7 upgrade ESXi 6.5 to 6.7 - pt.3 VSphere 6.7 upgrade vCSA 6.5 to 6.7 - pt.2 Currently the direct vCSA upgrade to version 6.7 is supported from vCSA 6.0 or 6.5 U1 but it was already announced the upcoming vCSA 6.7 U1 update release will support the upgrade also from version 6.5 U2.Īlthough the upgrade process doesn't delete the original vCSA, before proceeding with the upgrade make sure you have a working backup available to restore the original vCSA in case of problems. If your vSphere environment is running version 6.0 or above, you can easily migrate the vCenter Server to version 6.7 with the migration tool provided with vSphere 6.7.Ĭompared to a fresh vCSA installation, the upgrade is the preferred method to use for complex environments or where time consuming settings have been configured in the original vCenter Server.
