  • 1.  Can you reverse VM hardware from 8 to 7?

    Posted Feb 11, 2013 11:54 AM

    The documentation says you can reverse the VM hardware from 8 back to 4, if you do a snapshot first.  See this URL:

    http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vsphere.upgrade.doc_50%2FGUID-A45CBEE5-C4D2-484E-A699-A5A577244DE0.html

    But can you reverse the VM hardware from 8 to 7 using a snapshot?

    If so how?

    regards

    Thanks for that – I didn’t find that discussion on my original search. I have now tried the suggestion and it does look like it works. So thanks
