Hello guys, when I check VMs on a Host for updates - VMware Tools & Hardware Compatibility - I often see an "unknown" status on some VMs. I tested around a bit and noticed that this error occurs more often when the guest OS does not match the actual OS of the VM. For example - Guest OS Version is Debian GNU/Linux 10 and installed is Debian 11. However, this does not always help. As soon as I try to check the status, I get the following error: "The operation is not supported on the object." Does anyone have a similar problem or an idea how I can prevent this. I will be grateful for any advice. Thanks in advance Timo // Host and VM Hypervisor: VMware ESXi, 7.0.3, 20842708 Model: ProLiant DL360 Gen9 Guest OS: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (64-bit) Compatibility: ESXi 7.0 U2 and later (VM version 19) VMware Tools: Running, version:11333 (Guest Managed)
