Upgrading vCenter Chargeback Manager and Configuring in DMZ
You can upgrade an existing vCenter Chargeback Manager setup to version 2.0 such that the load balancer
runs in the DMZ and the vCenter Chargeback Manager instance is in a secured internal network.
If you have a vCenter Chargeback 1.5 or later setup and want the load balancer and the vCenter Chargeback
Manager to run on different machines post-upgrade, then you must perform the following tasks.
Procedure
1 Perform the pre-upgrade tasks listed in “Pre-Upgrade Tasks for vCenter Chargeback Manager,” on
page 35.
2 Stop all the vCenter Chargeback Manager related services.
You must stop the load balancer, database, and all the data collector services along with the vCenter
Chargeback Manager service.
3 Uninstall the existing vCenter Chargeback Manager setup but retain the database.
Ensure that you do not select the option to empty the database during uninstallation.
4 Run the vCenter Chargeback Manager installer on the machine on which you want to install the load
balancer.
During the install provide the details of the retained vCenter Chargeback Manager database. Do not select
the Install vCenter Chargeback Server option during the installation.
5 Run the vCenter Chargeback Manager installer on the machine on which you want to install the vCenter
Chargeback Manager instance.
During the install provide the details of the retained vCenter Chargeback Manager database and the newly
installed load balancer details. Ensure that you select the Install vCenter Chargeback Server option during
the installation.
Upgrading a vCenter Chargeback 1.0.x Setup
You cannot directly upgrade a vCenter Chargeback 1.0.x setup to the latest vCenter Chargeback Manager
release.
After performing the pre-upgrade tasks, you must perform the following tasks to upgrade a vCenter
Chargeback 1.0.x setup to the latest vCenter Chargeback Manager release.
1 Upgrade your setup to vCenter Chargeback 1.5.
When you upgrade to vCenter Chargeback 1.5, the database schema is updated.
2 Take a backup of the upgraded database.
3 Upgrade the vCenter Chargeback 1.5 setup to the latest version of vCenter Chargeback Manager.
Upgrade to vCenter Chargeback 1.5
You can upgrade a vCenter Chargeback 1.0.x setup to vCenter Chargeback 1.5.
Prerequisites
Before you upgrade a standalone vCenter Chargeback Manager instance, stop the corresponding vCenter
Chargeback Manager service and the data collector services. If any vCenter Chargeback Manager related
service is running, the upgrade process fails.
