If you will receive the following error during vSphere 6.0a –> 6.0b updating:
Can’t upgrade esxi 5.5 to 6.0 due a vib conflict
Today I tried to upgrade my standalone (not in Cluster) host (HP DL 180 G6) with esxi 6.0 and Update Manager. But when the process starts I had received this error:
The upgrade contains the following set of cpnflicting VIBs:
Mellanox_bootbank_net-mlx4-en_1.9.9.0-1OEM.550.0.0.1331820
Upgrading to VMware Virtual SAN 6.0
Last time I described how to build test environment for vSAN 5.5 on one physical server. Today I want try to update VMWare vSAN 5.5 to vSAN 6.0. After that I will upgrade vSAN in Production.
So we have our test environment with nested esxi virtual hosts. We have updated hosts and vCenter to 6.0. And see notification on our vSAN cluster.
Patch standalone esxi host to 6.0
With every new vmware esxi build you need to update your servers. It is very easy with Update Manager, but how to do it when there is standalone version of ESXi or one managed by vCenter server? It can be patched very easy way via CLI and using SSH. Today we will try such process with upgrade ESXi 5.5 to ESXi 6.0 in my home lab. In the future posts I will tell you about my home lab, but now lets start to upgrade standalone esxi server which is managed by vCenter living on this server. We need ESXi Offline Bundle (VMware-ESXi-6.0.0-2494585-depot.zip file) for that.
