Hello,
i tried to upgrade my vcenter appliance server from 5.0 to 5.5
during the upgrade process, i met an error due to the lack of room on the source appliance server (5.0) for migrating the embedded DB2 database
as askes by vmware, i applied KB 2018760 and started the process again
all is fine until pre-check which is OK but after it fails
in the target appliance server (5.5) the logfile says :
localhost:/var/log/vmware/vami # more upgrade.log
