Hello All,
It is possible to upgrade using the ISO or CD method from ESXi 4.0 (free version) to ESXi 5.0? I tried this method (on a test machine) from ESXi 4.1 (free version) to 5.0 and it worked but it doesn't seem like it would be that easy.
Below are the server's and vm's associated with my production network:
ESXi Host 1 - Dell Poweredge 2900
VM's: Windows SBS 2003, XP Pro, Web Titan (web security vm on VM version 4.0)
ESXi Host 2 - Dell Poweredge 2950
VM's: XP Pro and Server 2003 standard x 2
All VM's except for Web Titan are on VM version 7. Once I upgrade, will I have any issues with powering on VM's?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

hi hardware seems ok,but i think ESXi 5 is not stable ,some fetures removed from ESXi5 like quick switch option not available .
as your are doing in testing purpose then you can do some exercise .
Yours,
