Hardware is good to go. I was able to speak with VMWare support tech for a short time today. I had just finished verifing the hardware when the tech called me. He has talked me into going full boat upgrade 5.5.U2b. I have to up setup a new SQL Express 2008 first. I have the downloads for ESXi and vCenter Server for 5.5.U2b. Only thing I've been told is that this will break my current SRM. SRM will need to be built from the ground up. I think I'd have to do that anyway. My Equal Logic storage is doing the production vm replication of the volumes. I think the current SRM just builds off of the replicated vm's and presents me with test vm's. The SRM is only a best guess on my part at this time. But if I can keep production going and get it upgraded, it will buy me time to firgure out how to setup SRM later.
