How upgrade your vRops to new version?

We want upgrade vRops 7.5 to 8.5. There are some software update best practice:

1. Take a snapshot of your deployed vRealize Operations clusters or back them up before you begin the software update. See the release notes for details on how to snapshot correctly.
2. Run the pre-upgrade assessment tool before the upgrade. This is imperative and will provide you with a list of impacted content caused by the removal of numerous metrics from the product. Ignoring this step may potentially lead to broken content.
3. Remove your snapshots after the software update completes or you may experience performance degradation.

Ok, let start the upgarde.
