I currently have a Vcenter 6.0 on WIndows 2012R2 with a SQL database on a dedicated SQL server 2016. If I migrate this to Vcenter 6.5 VCSA, what about my SQL database ?
Thx

Does the VDS get migrated as well? I have replaced my Nk1V and converted to VDS, I am assuming all is done automatically.

When you do a migration from vCenter Windows to vCSA, everything is migrated either certificates or database.

Need some clarification on the Vcenter DB.

In my infra, I have Vcenter 5.5 on Windows and VCDB is on other windows server. I’m planning to Migrate to vCSA 6.0. Does VCDB will aslo be migrated by this tool..?

What about current certificate in vcenter..?

It includes the cluster configuration, the logs, the vCenter settings and so on.

I have questions.
Are all the cluster and vMotion migrated?
I am guessing this is included in the configuration.

Thanks,
Hayas

Will it also migrate all the identities and windows OS accounts to VCSA appliance, also what name does it take while joining the active directory does it takes the same old windows vcenter name, so that i dont have to re configure my veeam backups to direct to new vcenter ?

Thanks
Acacio

Usually it takes 1h – 1h30 to complete the migration.
