Vladan,

Different tables and fields and unrelated data would be my guess. Plus
the mobility/felxibility to put VUM on a standalone server for
complex, multi ip subnet, or heavy security environments.

The VUM dbase is primarily for the patch repository and status of
patches and updates, I guess? Never really looked at the tables that
close ...

It's good how-to Rich…

I wonder why is better to separate the SQL database for VUM and vCenter… Keep the updates apart of vCenter.. ?
And also what do you mean by “back end database of a virtualized vCenter”.
