Personnaly I'm waiting for chrismas before upgrading ...
Maybe a developper has put a gift on the license date

Tried updating 3 hosts (downloaded the latest patch/update, U3, from the downloads page to my desktop - updating procedure for all three hosts is the same: no VMs, and put to maintenance mode):

1 Dell PE2950 - using VIU - SUCCESSFULL

2 Dell R905s - using VIU - FAILED. At the VIU screen it shows "Installing: firmware update for U3 release 70%" and at the VIC it's stuck at task "Install" at 25%. Both hosts are doing the same thing. One host has no VMFS datastore and the other does (local) - both same results. Waited as long as 2 hours, no dice.

Any ideas? - Sorry I don't mean to threadjack, but if I don't see any replies, I'll post up a different posting.

Thanks!
Have a great day.
