vSphere Web Client User Label Conversion A vSphere 5.0/5.1 storage profile can reference user labels displayed in the vSphere Web Client. Users can associate a datastore with a user label. When you upgrade to vSphere 5.5, any existing 5.0/5.1 user labels will be converted into datastore tags. A converted policy profile contains one subprofile for each label referenced by the original vSphere 5.0/5.1 profile. ■ A system label reference is converted to a reference to the appropriate vendor-specific “legacy system label” capability generated from that label. ■ A user label reference is converted to a reference to the appropriate datastore tag generated from that label. The following figure shows the conversion of a vSphere 5.0/5.1 profile that references a system label “Vendor1Gold” and a user label “MyDatastores”. When you upgrade to vSphere 5.5, the system converts the profile into Storage Policy API elements. ■ The legacy system label identifies the original source as a VASA 1.0 provider. ■ The legacy user label identifies the original source as a 5.0/5.1 user label in the vSphere Web Client.
