Hello. I am upgrading 100 hosts from 5.1U1 to 5.5 using auto deploy. I would like to reuse the existing host profiles as I do not know all the settings contained in them. Can I simply apply the host profile created from the 5.1 reference host and apply it to the 5.5 host? The settings are different between ESXi versions. Is it smart enough to merge the old with the new?
On a side note. Why is there no host profile diff tool? Just venting. Thanks.
