Other than making sure the server hardware is supported go to page 55 of the upgrade for the preparation of your host for the upgrade including backing up the configuration and then on to page 63 which will provide step-by-step instructions on the upgrade process -

here is the link to upgrade guide http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r41/vsp_41_upgrade_guide.pdf but it sounds like you already have it
