Basically the Windows Client can be used to upgrade the HW version, but it does not allow an upgrade to HW version 9, this is only possible using the Web Client.

That doesn't seem true. I have upgraded all my virtual machines from hardware 8 to hardware 9 using the Windows Client. You just right click on it when it's powered off and choose to upgrade hardware version... It's only when creating a new vm that you can't choose version 9. You need to upgrade it after it's creation.
