Upgrade options depend on your current version. For more information on VMFS datastores, see the vSphere Storage documentation. If you have VMFS3 datastores, upgrade them to VMFS6. You can continue to use existing VMFS3 datastores, but you cannot create new VMFS3 datastores. See Knowledge Base article KB 52932.įor more information on upgrade problems related to Host Profiles, see Upgrade Issues with vCenter Server Containing Host Profiles and the sections on Host Profiles upgrade workflows in the vSphere Host Profiles documentation.ĮSXi and vCenter Server supports VMFS3, VMFS5, and VMFS6 datastores.
Ensure that you are using Host Profiles version 6.0 or later. Host Profiles is a vCenter Server tool for designing and deploying ESX and ESXi hosts. See the VMware Product Interoperability Matrix at. vCenter Server 7.0 requires ESXi host version 6.5 or later. Verify that your ESX or ESXi host works with the vCenter Server version that you are upgrading to. Note: vCenter Server 7.0 uses PostgreSQL for the embedded database. Verify that your database is supported for the vCenter Server version that you are upgrading to.
Verify support for the upgrade path from your current version of vCenter Server to your planned upgrade version. Upgrading vCenter Server and Related VMware Products and Components Product or Component For information about upgrading vCenter Server 5.0, 5.1, 5.5, or 6.0 to version 6.5 or 6.7, see the VMware vSphere 6.5 Documentation or VMware vSphere 6.7 Documentation Table 1. To upgrade from vCenter Server 5.0, 5.1, 5.5, or 6.0 you must first upgrade the vCenter Server instance to version 6.5 or later releases, and then upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0. VSphere supports upgrades from vCenter Server 6.5 and later to vCenter Server 7.0. vCenter Server 7.0 cannot manage ESXi 6.0 or earlier hosts.
VCenter Server 7.0 can manage ESXi version 6.5 hosts in the same cluster with ESXi 7.0 hosts. Upgrading vCenter Server and Related VMware Products and Components summarizes how upgrading vCenter Server can affect your data center components. The upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0 affects other software components of the data center.
