Shokk - That is exactly where I was. Glad I saved you the ‘emergency upgrade’

Cheers.

Wow, sorry for your pain, but thank you for saving my skin. Was going to make that mistake as past of an upcoming change control, where we have VC 2.5 U1.

Beb4vm: VMware says a lot of things, but most importantly in this post is that release notes did not explicitly say such that VirtualCenter will break in this configuration - rather than simply “not compatible”

I find this article interesting because of the fact that the author brought the problem on himself. VMware has ALWAYS stated that any implementation, upgrade, or install should always be staged with the Virtual Center version equal or higher than the host version. The FIRST thing the author should have done was upgrade Virtual Center to Update 2.
