Hi,
Am looking to upgrade my companies vCenter 4.1 installation to 5.1 so I have been replicting my environment on an isolated test lab so I can see how it goes.
Currently I have vCenter Server running on a Windows 2003 R2 64bit VM with SQL Server Standard 2008 as the database.
When I tried a test upgrade it went OK, but I noticed in the upgrade guide and on the compatability site that SQL Standard 2008 is not shown as supported, with only 2008 Standard R2 being supported, but for me it seemed to work? Would it be worth me upgrading to R2 Standard before I attempt the 5.1 upgrade and if so is there anything specific I need to do or is it just running the R2 upgrade wizard?
Thanks,
Andy
