如何更新esxi 5？

Question

我有一个ESXi 5主机(免费)和vSphere客户端。我想更新到u1，但我找不到方法去做它。更新是带有模块的ZIP文件，没有安装程序。vSphere客户端没有更新模块。

谢谢!

Answer 1

为了在没有ESXi的情况下更新vSphere，您必须从命令行执行更新。这意味着启用SSH和控制台对主机的访问，并将更新文件放置在可访问的数据存储上。

核心命令是：

esxcli software vib update -d /vmfs/volumes/[DATASTORE]/[PATCH_FILE].zip

这里的指南也很有用..。

Answer 2

一种方法是通过命令行更新系统。

拿上最新的包裹从这里开始。截至今天，这是ESXi500 500-201205001.

将更新压缩文件传输到主机可见的数据存储。

使用以下命令应用更新。

# check server status
vicfg-hostops --server servername --username root --operation info

# start maint mode (you should stop any running VMs)
vicfg-hostops --server servername --username root --operation enter

# examine upgrade package
esxcli --server servername --username root software sources profile list --depot=[datastore1]/ESXi500-201112001.zip

# perform a dry run of the upgrade
esxcli --server servername --username root software profile install --depot=[datastore1]/ESXi500-201112001.zip --profile=ESXi-5.0.0-20111204001-standard --dry-run

# perform the upgrade
esxcli --server servername --username root software profile install --depot=[datastore1]/ESXi500-201112001.zip --profile=ESXi-5.0.0-20111204001-standard

# reboot the server
vicfg-hostops --server servername --username root --operation reboot

# examine the system post update, to verify the update applied.
esxcli --server servername --username root software vib list

请参见：

• 从命令行修补ESXi
• 使用esxcli命令升级主机

最近的vSphere管理助理设备VM可以是在这里发现的。这是一个安装了远程CLI包的VM。远程CLI包可以是在这里发现的。

有一篇文章为您提供了整个过程：http://public.madeinengland.co.nz/how-to-update-esxi-5/

它很好，因为它使用GIU，所以它更简单。而且，它更好，因为它允许过时的服务器部件的遵从性视图。
