Hello Forum Members,
I have patched our esxi host from 6.0 to 6.0U3. I would like to patch this host to the latest patch
cycle for esxi 6.0. I have found a file that is VMWare ESXi 6.0, Patch Release ESXi600-20190501
I would like to patch the host to that level. The hardware we are hosting this on is an HP DL380 Gen7 box.
Can I apply this patch to this host?
Thanks
OliverG

Hi,
What's the current exact version of ESXi running on this hardware ?
You are already running the maximum major version ESXi 6.0 U3 that this hardware supports. Hence you can apply the minor patch on this version.
Yes, you can install the latest available patch on the host.
Please refer the below VMware Compatibility guide,

And - one more question - thanks for the reply above.
I applied that patch to a standalone esxi host, and all was well.
I have a vCenter server(s) that need to be patched as well, both are at version 6.0.0, build 5112529
I am looking for the patch file for this version, and it is running on HP DL380 Gen8 hardware.
I will continue to look the for the procedure and if we have VUM, we can update the hosts on
the vCenter server(s)
Thanks,
OliverG
Yes, using update manager you can patch multiple hosts at the same time.
