Hello,

 

I'm trying to migrate my actual installation of vcenter 5 with a local sql database to a clusster SQL.

 

Here is the manipulation i do:

- Stop vcenter services

- Copy mdf and ldf files of the database to my directory in my cluster SQL

- Modify the ODBC connector to specify the news path of the database

 

After this manipulations i try to relaunch the services Vcenter and he pop up me an error.

 

 

After somes tests i do a unistall of the instance vcenter.

I check the ODBC connector after unistall and it was deleted.

I create a new one with the pathof my database to my cluster SQL and i relaunch the installation of Vcenter 5

During the installation i check "Use an existing database" and specify my ODBC connector recreate before.

 

Installation working fine.

After reboot my server, vcenter server start without problem and work.

 

I need to known if there is a possibility to just "repair" the instance to specify the new database because uninstall the instance is a big action ?!?

 

Thanks,for help,
