There was an Update Manager in play, which requires that you log into the Update Manager and run the Migration Assistant. However, when prompted for the &quot;root&quot; password, even though I had entered the correct password, repeeatedly, it failed, saying I had bad credentials. After much butting of my head against the wall, and Googling, I found out that to fix it, you need to run the following utility:<br /> <br /> C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\Infrastructure\Update Manager\VMwareUpdateManagerUtility.exe<br /> <br /> then:<br /> <br /> 1. Login with SSO Admin (administrator@vsphere.local or similar)<br /> <br /> 2. Navigate to “re-register vCenter Server” and enter in the details again.<br /> <br /> [[File:vmwareupdatemanagerutility.png]]</div>
