The vCenter Server Appliance instance requires a database to store and organize server data. Ensure your source vCenter Server database is prepared for migration to the target vCenter Server Appliance.

Each vCenter Server Appliance instance must have its own database. The bundled PostgreSQL database that is included in the vCenter Server Appliance supports up to 2,000 hosts and 35,000 virtual machines.
