Migrating from management node version 10.x to 11.x
If you have a management node at version 10.x, you cannot upgrade from 10.x to 11.x. You can instead use
this migration procedure to copy over the configuration from 10.x to a newly deployed 11.1 management node.
If your management node is currently at 11.0 or higher, you should skip this procedure. You need management
node 11.0 or 11.1 and the latest HealthTools to upgrade Element software from 10.3 + through 11.x.
Steps
1. From the VMware vSphere interface, deploy the management node 11.1 OVA and power it on.
2. Open the management node VM console, which brings up the terminal user interface (TUI).
3. Use the TUI to create a new administrator ID and assign a password.
4. In the management node TUI, log in to the management node with the new ID and password and validate
that it works.
5. From the vCenter or management node TUI, get the management node 11.1 IP address and browse to the
IP address on port 9443 to open the management node UI.
https://<mNode 11.1 IP address>:9443
6. In vSphere, select
