1)

I'm planning to create a new vCenter server which database point to the same db as current vCenter (the one LM pointing to atm),

Then I'm planning to repoint the LM to a new vCenter, ( the new one will see the same esx host, datastore, etc)

Is LM will be okay if I do this?

2)

The currect VC is a dediated server and a new vCenter will be VM, the current vCenter has database installed on local machine (inc update manager as well)

I'm planning to move the local db to cluster db then point the current vCenter to this new cluster and make sure everything is working before promote a new one.

Update manager will also has it own VM and point to a new db cluster.

Is anythingelse I miss out or need to pay more attention on?

thanks
