Hello Sir

We encountered upgrade issue when trying to upgrade our server from 4.1 U1 to 5.5U1

server: IBM X3650 M3

additional network cared: intel ethernet server adapter i340-t4

esxi version: 4.1 U1 to 5.5 U1

The file that I installed for esxi 4 update 1 is INT-intel-lad-ddk-igb-3.0.18-offline_bundle-396986.zip

How can I know which driver file I needed for esxi 5.5 update 1? seems I cannot find 3.0.18 for 5.5 at the page.

anyone can help me?

and which method is available for me to upgrade? upgrade through update manager was failed

thanks.

Hey,

have you checked if the driver is included in the IBM customized esxi image? IBM System x and BladeCenter with VMware

Unfortunately, I think IBM has only released 5.5 until now and not U1.
