A more reliable way of remembering useful IT things that I encounter with an added sprinkle of poor grammar.

Cannot install the vCenter Agent Service. Cannot prepare host for upgrade.
While upgrading vCenter, I received the message "Cannot install the vCenter Agent Service. Cannot prepare host for upgrade." when attempting to update the vCenter agent on a standalone ESX 3.02 Host.
To resolve, I connected via SSH and performed the following command to restart the ESX Management Agent.
service mgmt-vmware restart
I then reconnected the Host to vCenter and the agent was updated as intended.
