Hallo
I have a problem to update a ESXi 6.0.0 with the offline bundle zip.
I downloaded the original offline bundle zip and copied via scp to the ESXi host.
If I use the CLI Command „ esxcli software profile update -d /tmp/bundle-name.zip -p esxi-6.0.0-U3 „ I get a error massage like this
Error extracting index.xml from /var/log/vmware/update-bundle.zip: [Error]No such file or directory: '/var/log/vmware/update-bundle.zip File is not a zip file
I testet other bundle zip with the same error massage.
Where did you find this profile name?
To find out which profiles are available in a .zip bundle, run:
esxcli software sources profile list -d /tmp/ESXi600-201706001.zip
In this case it should return 4 profiles, where one of them is "ESXi-6.0.0-20170604001-standard"
If so, the update command should be:
esxcli software profile update -d /tmp/ESXi600-201706001.zip -p ESXi-6.0.0-20170604001-standard
