What two migration paths are supported for Windows vCenter Servers? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. vCenter Server 5.5 with an embedded vCenter Single Sign-On instance on Windows > vCenter B. vCenter Server 6.0 instance on Windows > vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 with an embedded. The vCenter Server Migration Tool supports migrating Windows-based vCenter 5.5 (embedded SSO) and vCenter 6.0 with an embedded Platform Services Controller to the VCSA 6.5.

Why each option

The vCenter Server Migration Tool supports migrating Windows-based vCenter 5.5 (embedded SSO) and vCenter 6.0 with an embedded Platform Services Controller to the VCSA 6.5.

AvCenter Server 5.5 with an embedded vCenter Single Sign-On instance on Windows > vCenterCorrect

vCenter Server 5.5 with an embedded SSO instance is a supported source topology because the migration tool can consolidate the embedded SSO and vCenter roles into a single VCSA with an embedded PSC.

BvCenter Server 6.0 instance on Windows > vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 with an embeddedCorrect

vCenter Server 6.0 on Windows with an embedded PSC is a supported migration path; the tool can directly convert this topology to a VCSA 6.5 with an embedded PSC.

CvCenter Server 6.0 instance on Windows > vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 with an external

Migrating a vCenter 6.0 Windows instance to a VCSA 6.5 with an external Platform Services Controller is not a supported path for the migration tool; external PSC deployments require a different migration strategy.

DvCenter Server 5.5 instance on Windows > vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 with an embedded

A vCenter Server 5.5 instance without an embedded SSO (i.e., using an external or standalone SSO) is not a supported direct migration topology; only the embedded SSO variant of vCenter 5.5 is supported.
