Patching an ESXi Host 6.0.0 3029758

Hi, I have just taken a role of another VM Engineer at my company who last built the ESXi host in December 2015. The version he deployed was 6.0.0 3029758 and he never patched it. I now need to patch this fairly urgently as an Audit requirement. Do I need to patch this host with all the previous Updates or can I patch with the very latest Patch that is available, which is ESXi600-201711001.zip.

Thanks

Hi!

All patches are cumulative. So you need to install the latest one and you will get updated version.

if this server is standalone (Not in vcenter) than you can patch latest on ESXi600-201711001, you can see below link  about VMware ESXi 6.0, Patch Release ESXi600-201711001

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2151126

https://esxi-patches.v-front.de/ESXi-6.0.0.html

if it is in Vcenter than first you have upgrade your V-cnetr with latest build than update your ESXI host
