Hi Gents,

I am facing an issue with upgrading ESXi 6.0 update 1 to Esxi 6.0 Update 2. Please find the details below.

NOS: 4.7.3
Hypervisor: ESXi update 1, looking to update to ESXi 6.0 update 2.
H/W: Lenovo HX5510

Issue: I downloaded the respective binary from Lenovos website which shows as compatible for HX5510. MD5SUM looks good after uploading the ESXi binary but i see "(not qualified)" after the iso fille name on the upgrade screen. Also there is a warning in red on top of the upgrade page that says Version ID of the software release, , does not exist.

Is it because Nutanix is yet to pass quality for this version or is it not supported at all ?

Also is there any link to view a interoperatibility matrix for nutanix nos versions against different hypervisor version support ?


Cheers,

    I'd recommend reading our Web Console guide documentation on Hypervisor upgrades for ESXi here: https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/docs/details?targetId=Web_Console_Guide-Prism_v4_7:wc_cluster_hypervisor_upgrade_esx_wc_t.html

    That outlines the process in great detail.

    The first problem I see is that you are not using the ESXi offline bundle, which is how ESXi hosts get patches, not through installer ISOs.

    regmiboyer If you're proceeding with .iso file you can mount it via IPMI and performing upgrade like typical server. Please make sure you stop cluster service before upgrading ESXi
