Once all the hosts are back online you can move onto updating the vCenter Server Appliance.įor this, log into the Appliance Management interface (same web address or IP, but port 5480), click on the update section and check for updates. If you have a cluster with dissimilar hosts, you can manually select which hosts you want the baseline image applied to.Īt this point the process is completely hands off and automated, with vCenter putting hosts into maintenance mode and upgrading the boot image one by one. Once the baseline is assigned, you click remediate and let VMware handle all the heavy lifting for the hosts inside.
In our lab environment we picked out VMmark cluster, and through updates attached a new baseline image. Click next to move along, and once it is uploaded you can assign the new base image to a cluster or individual host to udpate it. The import process will verify your image, showing you the basic information form it including the Vendor, release date, build number and ESXi version. With the file or files in hand, head into the vCenter web client and hop into the update manager. Click the tab for ESXi images and import your newest file. The most recent file that I pulled down for this article is “ VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.7.0.update01-10302608.x86_64-DellEMC_Customized-A00.iso“.
In our case we leverage a ton of Dell EMC PowerEdge servers in our lab, so we grabbed it from them. If using the generic image, pull it down through your support account on, or if its a customized image grab it from your vendor’s support website.

The first step is pulling down the proper ISO for your systems. In this quick In the Lab I take you through the quick and easy way to update your hosts and VCSA to the newest version of ESXi. This latest update brings a number of patches and updates, although as someone sitting in front of a vCenter Client window most of the day, you really only care about that awesome new Dark Theme people have been talking about. VMware just released their first update to ESXi 6.7, aptly named ESXi 6.7U1.
