Hi all, i'm in the process of planning an upgrade of vCentre server from 4.1x to 5.1x. vCentre is running on MSSQL 2005 32bit on Windows 2008 server R2. Once i've updated MSSQL 2005 to the latest SP I plan to do a simple install as everything's on the same box.
My issue is that I've inherited this system and unfortunately there is no documentation on what the database user name and password is related to vCenter.
In the MSSQL management studio I can see a database user called "vpxuser" which seems to have "db_owner" permissions for both MSDB and VCDB. I assume this is the user i need to give when prompted during the vCentre upgrade?
The problem is i do not have a password for this "vpxuser" account, so my question is, am i safe to reset this user's password right before i upgrade? and then use these new credentials when prompted?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
