Hi all,
How can I migrate my vCenter server used by View to another computer, preserving the existing desktop pools and user-to-desktop assignment?
Our Horizon View 5.2 environment is using a vCenter 4.1 server which I would like to migrate to 5.1 on a new system with a new ip address and hostname. We are using only dedicated statefull desktop pools with automatic assignment, we are not using linked clones. It is important that after the migration when users connect to View they automatically get the same dedicated View desktop as before the migration.
How can I accomplish this? I know how to migrate a vCenter to a different host (when not using View), my question is only about the Horizon View part.
KB article 1018045, "Moving View-managed desktops between vCenter Servers is not supported", doesn't look very hopefull.
