I have a single ESXi host in production I would like to upgrade to 5.0. I am struggling on the best way to do that. The best conclusion I have come to so far is to put 3tb worth of disk into a linux system I have and scp all the vms over to that box do the upgrade and then scp back. Is there any kind of major flaw in this plan. I hope to start this process tomorrow. I have about 2tb worth of vms to move.
The my host is a single Dell Poweredge 2950 III with 2 E5430 Xeons with 32 gig of ram 6 750 gig near line sas drives in Raid 5 on a perc 6i running ESXi 4.1 update 2(I think i need to check)
Any advice on this matter before I venture forth would be much appreciated.
