Upgrading ESXi from 5.1 to 5.5u2

Quite a jump I know but here I am.  This is a View 5.0.1 environment so View Composer is on my vCenter machine. I'm wondering about the vCenter upgrade.  I need to maintain vCenter access to my cluster throughout this process so I was thinking about cloning the VM, isolating it on the network, and do the upgrade on the clone.  When I'm all done and ready to test, isolate the existing one and drop the upgraded one onto the network again.  If I'm not moving VMs or provisioning new View clients there shouldn't be any database changes.  Something tells me this is FAR to easy tho...so what am I missing?

 

The end goal here to is move the 4 hosts to ESXi and vCenter to 5.5u2 and bring my VDI environment up to Horizon 6.
