Failure to Import ESXi images with Update Manager

Hi,

Following another topic related to 6.5.0 Update01 content, I was trying to upgrade my ESXi host to that level (Build 5969303)

My current configuration consists of :

- vCSA Version 6.5.0 Build 4944578

- ESXi hosts running VMware ESXi, 6.5.0 build 4887370

I have downloaded the ISO Image on a server : VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.5.0.update01-5969303.x86_64.iso.

I proceed as follows :

- Connect to vCSA

- Click on the Update Manger icon from the Home screen

-  Click on the Go To Admin View button

- Once in Admin view, select the ESXi Images tab and click on Import ESXi Image

- Click on Browse and navigate to the folder where the image is stored

- Select the ISO file and click OK

Once the OK done, I think that very shortly (during few milliseconds) I can see  the upload progress bar, but immediately nothing else.

The upload failed for an unknown reason. I try to review the Events on the vSphere client web but there is nothing.

Nothing also in the log located under  /var/log/vmware/vmware-updatemgr/vum-server.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong places.

Any thoughts why I get this failure to import the ISO?

Thanks in advance for help .

Regards

Patrick
