VDR to VDP Migration and vCenter 5.0

$

hi guys

 

I have vCenter 5.0 and VDR 2.0 and I want to install VDP.

Since VDP needs vCenter 5.1 I want to install a new vCenter Appliance 5.1 and delete the 5.0

 

So I have some doubts about this migration process.

 

I think it would be like this.

 

1. Shutdown vCenter 5.0

2. Install new vCenter 5.1 same IP.

3. Install VDP

4. Attach VDR Disks (according to this vSphere Data Protection (VDP) Version 5.1.10 is Generally Available | VMware vSphere Blog - VMware Blogs). At this point I am really not sure how VDP discovers the recovery points from VDR (looks like magic for me)

5. Wait for the migration

6. Recreate the jobs in VDP with the data from VDR already imported

 

Am I correct or I need vCenter 5.0 and vCenter 5.1 up and running at the same time to do this migration?

 

thanks a lot
