I have a virtual machine running on a SAN but I can't see it as a related object only if I browse the datastore. I need to move the VM from 1 datastore to another so I can upgrade the host to vSphere ver. 5.5
Some History: The last IT Manager used to move this VM from datastore to datastore when needed but just before he was let go he upgraded 3 of our 4 hosts to ver. 5.5 and the other never was updated. I would like to migrate/move this VM from its current host to a different host but can not see the VM to manage it unless I log into the host that is on vSphere ver. 4.1.
Things to keep in mind:
1. This is a production VM
2. I have to schedule down time
My assumption is that because one host is on an older version I can't see the VM it houses on the other hosts? How do I move this VM?
