Installing Update Manager with Unified Installer Might Fail if Disparate Databases Are Used

Details

Using the custom installation option in the the unified installer, VirtualCenter can be configured to install and use a new version of the bundled SQL Server 2005 Express database. Similarly, Update Manager can be configured to use an Oracle database.
 
These installation options cause the Update Manager installation to fail with the errors:
  • Setup failed to create database tables
  • Error: 24127 setup failed to upgrade the VMware Update Manager Database

Solution

Launch the unified installer again using the autorun.exe, and provide the same custom options for the Update Manager database. Note that some options in the installer may change because parts of the installation have completed successfully. The second installation typically completes successfully.
