Note
If you have VMware vSphere Platform integrated with BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management, and you plan to migrate to VMware vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA), contact BMC Support to obtain the latest information on supported migration paths.
Switching from a Windows-based vCenter to a vCenter Server Appliance alters certain internal identifiers that disrupt the ability BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management to manage existing workloads and provision new workloads on that vCenter instance.
