Patching powered off VM's

Folks,

We have 2 ESX boxes (3.0.1) in prod. 3 Windows 2003 server VM's each on ESX box.. On second ESX box, 2 VM's are offline (powered off) which are replica of 2 VM's in first ESX box.. This is for redundancy purpose..

Now, My question is, I have patched all VM's which are online.. Please suggest me best way to patch offline VM's (After Patching, VM's should be again in offline mode (powered off).

To make online the powered off VM's for patching, the space left in second ESX box is only 2.5 gb..how do i make them online for patching??

Pls suggest best possible steps...
