VMware For New Admins - Upgrade: VMware Admin Series, #3
()
About this ebook
This book on command line VMWare is the 3rd in my series on VMware for New Admins. At some point in our careers, we will have to do our first upgrade of VMware and some or all of its components. My first upgrade had a few bumps in the road. It could have been worse. My goal with this book is to help you have an easier time during your upgrade process and start on the path to creating your own blueprint ro a successful upgrade.
Having a successful upgrade doesnt have to be difficult. As with anything that has several components, doing as much planning as you can up front and doing a test run in a lab situation can do a lot to avoiding problems later on.

Unfortunately in this world of lawsuits, I want to make the following disclaimer. Everything that I have written about here is about my own experiences or as a result of research that I did. Your results may vary from mine. What you will read about here is what I using on one or more of VMware server. If I haven’t ordered something but found that it was something that I would be looking at in the future, I will indicate that.
This eBook is written from a point of view of someone who is new to VMware or has just been put into the role of being an Admin for one or more VMware hosts. As with anything VMware, there is usually more than one way to do anything that I will talk about here. Depending on of how your job is focused, you may do things a little differently.
Introduction
Welcome to VMware for New Admins - Upgrade. This is the 3rd book in my VMware series. The motivation for writing this volume in the series was what I went through during my first upgrade in VMware and how I learned to do it better the next time. This is something that
