With this great tool from VMware Labs, we will be able to migrate our vCenter server installed on Windows to the VMware vCenter Appliance linux appliance, will migrate the SQL Server database to vPostgres and all major services, interesting, isn't it? We will finally be able to easily migrate vCenter from Windos to Linux, with the savings that come with it on licenses!

In this document we will see how we can easily and quickly change the certificates assigned to our VMware vCenter server, Not only that, since vSphere 6.0 Certificate Manager is the new VMware tool with which we can perform any management we need with certificates in vSphere!!!
If we have a vSphere 5.x platform and we want to migrate to the 6 vSphere, we can start with the vCenter Server, This document shows the steps to follow in an environment with a Windows-based server with SQL Server database,
In this document, we'll look at the first step of migrating to VMware vSphere 6, we will update our vCenter server, in this case we will update the Linux-based appliance that we have in our organization (VCSA), which must be a version 5.1 U3 or 5.5. We'll follow these simple steps to update you to the 6.
We already know that the collection of logs in our systems is essential to know the health of the state or to know possible problems, vCenter Log Insight is a log manager that allows us to automate the collection of logs and analyze the information from our vSphere system in a very simple way.
Well, Another way to upgrade to the vSphere version 5.5 will be to upgrade our vCenter Server (Windows-based), later we will update Update Manager and with it the hosts in an orderly way (to put an end to VMTools in virtual machines and raise vHD if interested). This is usually found in somewhat more complex environments, where neither vCSA nor update management is used.
In this scenario, we will update a VMware vSphere environment 5.1 to the latest version manually, without Update Manager, we will first update our vCenter Server Appliance to the new version, then the ESXi hosts and finally the virtual machines. If we want to know what's new in vSphere 5.5, We have them here!
vCenter Multi-Hypervisor Manager is an add-on that installs on our vSphere infrastructure to centrally manage heterogeneous environments with Hyper-V and ESXi servers, being able to perform basic tasks on Hyper-V VMs with our vSphere client,
This document will be useful in reducing the size of our VMware vCenter database, it will also be necessary when it reaches the limits if we have it in a SQL Express, since the services will not start and therefore we will have errors in the registry that will indicate it to us.
