Upgrading to VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle 8.12


 

  • Current version of vRSLCM in my lab is of version 8.10 PSPACK 9.

  • Goal is to upgrade to version 8.12. As we all know from this version onwards vRSLCM will now be refferred as VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle


 

  • I have mapped updaterepo iso on the vRSLCM appliance using datastore iso option

  • Login into vRSLCM and then click on check for upgrade

  • Remember to take a snapshot without fail before attempting an upgrade

  • Here you go there's my update


  • There's a product pane which tells you to acknowledge that necessary prerequisites have taken place , accept to move forward



  • There are 6 validations performed



  • Upgrade started


  • During this phase check 

/var/log/vrlcm/vmware_vrlcm.log
/opt/vmware/var/log/vami/updatecli.log
/opt/vmware/bootstrap/postupdate.log

  • After few minutes , here you go , the all nee VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle 8.12



  • Here's the home page


  • Environments pane

  • Remember , I just upgraded by vRSLCM and once done , as expected all my existing products would start displaying the new names. Unless i upgrade the product, on the product end it would still show the old branding.


  • That's the system settings



  • This concludes uprgade of vRSLCM to what now we call VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle 8.12
