Hi,
I am planning for the vRA 6.2.1 upgrade from vCAC 6.0.1. I understood there is no way directly upgrading it but to vRA 6.1 first and then vRA 6.1 will be upgraded to vRA 6.2.1. I read the following article http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&externalId=2109760 which has the vmware supported sequence for its products which says :-
1.) vRA would be upgraded first then VCD followed by vCenter and vRO
however, i read a non vmware article on which author followed the following sequence :-
Upgrade vShield Manager to latest release
- Install/Upgrade or Configure vCenter Orchestrator to latest release
- Install the NSX plugin for vCenter Orchestrator (as its needed for vCNS)
- Optional: Upgrade vCenter Server Appliance to latest release
- Optional: Upgrade ESXi hosts
- Upgrade vCAC Café appliance to 6.1
- Upgrade the vCAC Database to 6.1 using the dbupgrade script
- Upgrade the vCAC IAAS server to 6.1
What is the best way to perform this, kindly suggest.
