Can I go from ESX 4.1 260247 to 988178? Or do I need to do any interim updates? Thanks!
No you do not need to do any interim updates - each update is cumalative -
Thanks. I'll schedule that when I have some downtime.
This is the update doc I should be using correct? http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=101620...
I suppose that you haven't VUM otherwise you can handle upgrade from there.
On ESX the esxupdate utility works fine.
Do you have a tech note for the esxupdate util?
Is quite easy.
Upload your zip file and use (check the syntax to be sure):
esxupdate --bundle=ZIP_FILE update
Note: host must be in maintenace mode
Do I even need to unZIP it?
No, you give a single "bundle" file
