Hey,
am pushing the update1 through update manager manually, but the esx host goes in "Not responding" state after the patch is installed.
i need to reboot the host manually, to get it in VC back. My env. - ESX3.5 in VC2.5.
did migrate the VMs to other esx & pulling in Maintenance mode & remediate the server - which is usual. After the patch is completed, the server goes in "Not responding" state, though i could SSH the server. I'm manually rebooting each esx to get it back normal in VC. But i remember, the hosts restarted automatically after the remediation is complete long time back.
The log file is normal with the last line as - "root: Final state: SuccessNeedsHostdRestart"
Any of your help is much appreciated.
