ESXi Migration

28

How Does A User Plan an ESX to ESXi migration?

1. Visit the ESX and ESXi Info Center

2. Start testing ESXi

• If you’ve not already deployed, there’s no better time than the present

3. Ensure 3rd party solutions used by your customers are ESXi Ready

• Monitoring, backup, management, etc. Most already are.

• Bid farewell to agents!

4. Familiarize with ESXi remote management options

• Transition any scripts or automation that depended on the COS

• Powerful off-host scripting and automation using vCLI, PowerCLI, …

5. Plan an ESXi migration as part of vSphere upgrade

• Testing of ESXi architecture can be incorporated into overall vSphere testing
