Welcome to the VMware Community forums. I have 3 methods documented here - http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/Patch_3i_without_VC.html.

Thank you, I saw your documentation. But I'm thinking about updating without any network access at all. In brochure wich came with server, is written:

Future updates to integrated VMware ESX Server 3i can be made using the same tool used to update ProLiant system firmware.
