You can upgrade the deployed Orchestrator Appliance with packages that VMware publishes. You can perform updates over the external Web, on your local area network, or from a CD-ROM.

To conserve network bandwidth, virtual appliance updates are applied only to packages that have changed. Updates can apply to the operating system, applications in the virtual appliance, VMware Tools, or the VMware Appliance Management Infrastructure (VAMI).

If you have installed VMware vSphere® Update Manager you can use it to update the Orchestrator Appliance automatically. For more information about upgrading virtual appliances with vSphere Update Manager, see the Update Manager documentation at http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/vum_pubs.html.

After you upgrade the Orchestrator Appliance your plug-ins' settings are preserved. If you want to configure the Orchestrator server to work with vCenter Single Sign On you must provide the vCenter Single Sign On credentials on the Plug-ins tab of the Orchestrator configuration interface.
