2. Warnings and notices

  • Before you begin, contact Abiquo Platform and Customer Success department to obtain your credentials because Abiquo YUM repositories require a login.

  • There is no upgrade path from NSX-V to NSX-T because VMware does not support this upgrade.

  • The upgrade will overwrite lang_en_US_labels.json. If you have customized labels or translations, back them up before the upgrade and restore them afterwards.

Note

Changes to enterprise properties for AWS billing

  • Before you upgrade to Abiquo 6.0.0, add the amazon_bucket_region as an enterprise property. The value is the code for the AWS region where your billing bucket is located (for example, us-east-1). This property applies to AWS resellers and standard accounts with billing dashboard configurations
