How to Upgrade vCenter 6.7 to vCenter 7.0 | VCSA 6.7 to VCSA 7.0 | vCenter 7 | vSphere 7

In this video I will walk you through the up-gradation process of VMware vCenter 6.7 to vCenter 7.0(VCSA 6.7 to VCSA 7.0).
It migrates all the data and shut down the old VM, then boots itself to the same IP address and DNS name as of the old VCSA.

Hi! Nice video guide. Some question to clarify
1) At 6:18 of the video, you had change the Hostname of the VM to a different hostname as compared to your source, is it a must? I think by putting the same hostname should not be having any issues as the source VM will be shutdown right after the upgrade. Am I right?

2) 6:47 of the video, is it a need to enable the Thin Disk Mode for the upgrade?

Thanks!

Hi, great video thanks. Do you need to upgrade your licenses to Version 7 before the upgrade ?

I just subscribed to your channel. Good job done. I have two questions 1. Once upgraded to VCSA7, Can we delete the old VCSA 6.7 appliance from Datastore. 2. Can we upgrade VCSA appliance from Update manager, importing VCSA 7 appliance ISO image.

After completing the upgrade, can I change the FQDN and Hostname of the new vm to be the same as the old vm?

Hi! Do the PC and vCenter used when upgrading have the same network address?

[harishkumar]

suppose in a cluster 4 hosts are present, by this process one host wll upgrade question is what about remaining 3 hosts?? how to upgrade

[claudiney]

Can't get out of this error would you have any idea what the problem would be? "No networks on the host. Cannot proceed with the installation.


Configure network settings for this vCenter Server"

Can you delete the old vcenter shown? Any issues with that?

[edenleong]

can we do upgrade from vCenter 6.7 to 7.0 directly ?

[fabiano]

How can I roll back if the upgrade fails ?

[pradnyapadaki]

Suppose we have 2 host, both managed by vcenter 6.7

- Host 1 has vcenter,

My idea is to move vcenter from host 1 to host 2 during upgrading from 6.7 to 8 directly.

so can i give the target host as host 2?

Will it upgrade? Will it have any effect?

[vonvaldez]

Do i need to do something different if one of my instances is in Linked Mode?

[praveenbakka]

why u gave temporary ip address is thir any rule to give that...?

how come the name still had a 7 in it, it didn't look like it used the original name
