Recoverpoint 5.2 plugin
Good afternoon,
My client has recoverpoint 5.1, however he plans to upgrade his vmware vcenter server to 6.7.
Validating I found that recoverpoint 5.1 is not compatible with vCenter 6.7.
But recoverpoint 5.2 if it supports vcenter 6.7, my question is when upgrading to vCenter 6.7, should recoverpoint 5.1 plugin be upgraded to 5.2?
Or should a new 5.2 plugin be installed to allow communication with the new version of vcenter 6.7?
Hi there,
You will need to upgrade to RPVM 5.2 (minimum of 5.2P4) before upgrading to vSphere 6.7 (minimum 6.7a). If it's a new install, then deploy RPVM 5.2. It would be recommended to deploy 5.2.2.4 (5.2 SP2 P4) which is our target release.
When upgrading RP4VMs, it's imperative to upgrade the vRPAs, splitters and plugin (just like any RPVM upgrade, see the Installation and Deployment Guide for more info) before the upgrade to vSphere 6.7.
Hope that helps,
Idan

Hello JLSIL,
Here is the link to the RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Simple Support Matrix, & 5.2 does support ESXi 6.7. You will need to install the 5.2 plugin so thatit will be supported. https://dell.to/33AmuQK
