Powerstore 1000X Queries - Issues when updating

Good afternoon,

Currently we have a powerstore 1000X with a vCenter and two ESXi 6.7 nodes, both vCenter and the ESXi nodes are embedded within the powerstore, we want to perform an update of the entire powerstore ecosystem but we have had many errors when updating it

So I need to make some support queries:

1- To be able to update the powerstore 1000X along with its vCenter and embedded ESXi nodes, is any additional license required to carry out this operation?

2- The appliances that manage the administration of each of the embedded ESXi, can they be turned off? And then cloned to another external vCenter?.

3- Can these embedded ESXi nodes be removed from the powerstore cluster and added to an external vCenter?.

Is it recommended to carry out any of the maneuvers that I mention in points 2 and 3?
