LifeCycle Manger - updating VMware Tools and VM hardware

[thomps01]

Hello,

Has anyone used LifeCycle Manger to update VMware Tools and VM hardware in vSphere 7?

I'd like some screenshots please to see the process. I find the documentation a bit vague.

thanks

Tony

Found a nice blog which explains clearly..https://4sysops.com/archives/vsphere-7-0-upgrade-virtual-vm-hardware-and-vmware-tools/

You can do this on two levels:

go to the VM and click on the "update" tab in the right pane

go to the cluster and click on the "update" tab and look at "vmware tools" or "VM hardware"

screenshots here show this:
