    Nov 1, 2018 (Last modified: Mar 30, 2019) appliance psc upgrade vcenter

    This week I've been playing in our vCenter lab and tested the upgrade to 6.7 U1 and also changing the deployment type to vCenter with embedded PSC.

    This month we started our upgrade journey from vSphere 6.0 -> 6.5 in production. We have had 6.5 running in lab for some time after the release last fall and we have enjoyed it so far.
