#Vmware srm compatibility matrix 6.0 upgrade
VSAN has several different on-disk format versions available depending on the version and upgrade history of the cluster. For more information, see the ESXi Installation and Setup, vCenter Server Installation and Setup, ESXi Upgrade, and vCenter Server Upgrade documentation.
For the best integration between vSAN components on vCenter Server and ESXi, deploy the latest version of these two vSphere components. To avoid potential faults because of differences in the vSAN support in vCenter Server and ESXi, synchronize versions of vCenter Server and ESXi. For more information, see the vSphere Networking documentation. If you are using an earlier version of Network I/O Control you must upgrade to Network I/O Control version 3. See Knowledge Base article KB 52826.ĭVS version 6.0 or later supports only Network I/O Control version 3. You must upgrade to DVS version 6.5 or later before you upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0. To ensure compatibility and best performance, when you upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0, use Auto Deploy to upgrade ESXi hosts to the same version. See the information about upgrading VMware Tools in the ESXi Upgrade documentation. Upgrade options depend on your current version. See the information about upgrading virtual machines in the ESXi Upgrade documentation. For more information on VMFS datastores, see the vSphere Storage documentation. If you have VMFS3 datastores, upgrade them to VMFS6. You can continue to use existing VMFS3 datastores, but you cannot create new VMFS3 datastores. See Knowledge Base article KB 52932.įor more information on upgrade problems related to Host Profiles, see Upgrade Issues with vCenter Server Containing Host Profiles and the sections on Host Profiles upgrade workflows in the vSphere Host Profiles documentation.ĮSXi and vCenter Server supports VMFS3, VMFS5, and VMFS6 datastores. Ensure that you are using Host Profiles version 6.0 or later. Host Profiles is a vCenter Server tool for designing and deploying ESX and ESXi hosts. See the VMware Product Interoperability Matrix at. vCenter Server 7.0 requires ESXi host version 6.5 or later. Verify that your ESX or ESXi host works with the vCenter Server version that you are upgrading to.
Note: vCenter Server 7.0 uses PostgreSQL for the embedded database. Verify that your database is supported for the vCenter Server version that you are upgrading to. Verify support for the upgrade path from your current version of vCenter Server to your planned upgrade version. Upgrading vCenter Server and Related VMware Products and Components Product or Component For information about upgrading vCenter Server 5.0, 5.1, 5.5, or 6.0 to version 6.5 or 6.7, see the VMware vSphere 6.5 Documentation or VMware vSphere 6.7 Documentation Table 1. To upgrade from vCenter Server 5.0, 5.1, 5.5, or 6.0 you must first upgrade the vCenter Server instance to version 6.5 or later releases, and then upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0. VSphere supports upgrades from vCenter Server 6.5 and later to vCenter Server 7.0. vCenter Server 7.0 cannot manage ESXi 6.0 or earlier hosts. VCenter Server 7.0 can manage ESXi version 6.5 hosts in the same cluster with ESXi 7.0 hosts. Upgrading vCenter Server and Related VMware Products and Components summarizes how upgrading vCenter Server can affect your data center components.

Contact the storage vendor for the full list of arrays supported with various combinations of SRM, SRA and vSphere releases.The upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0 affects other software components of the data center. So for example, storage array entries for SRM 5.0 will show only those arrays that are supported with ESXi 5.0. Due to different product release cycles, levels of testing, and partner agreements, not all storage devicesĪlso note that the SRM compatibility matrix for a specific release only lists those arrays that are supported on the VMware SAN compatibility list ( ) with the corresponding version of ESX. VMware works closely with each of its storage partners to drive towards mutual support of SRM at the time of announcement. Please note that the SRM 1.x and 4.0.x versions are now EOL per plan. Please note that NOT all SRAs are certified for SRM 4.1 and SRM 5.0. This document lists the Storage Replication Adapters (SRAs) currently supported by VMware and its storage partners for SRM versions 4.1 and 5.0. VMware Site Recovery Manager software has been tested and deployed in a variety of Storage Area Network (SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) environments.
