I'm trying to add a newer enic driver to a custom offline bundle. I entered the following commands, but when I run the remove software package command is looks successful, in fact it errors if I run it a second time.
But, when I run Get-EsxSoftwarePackage, it's still listed and I get an "Cannot merge VIBS" error message when trying add the newer software package.
1. Connect-viserver myvcenter
2. Add-EsxSoftwareDepot Foo-Custom-Cisco.zip
3. New-EsxImageProfile -CloneProfile "Foo-Custom-Cisco" “Foo-custom-Mine” -vendor Custom
Get-EsxSoftwarePackage -Vendor "Cisco" -CreatedAfter 1/1/2010
I can see the custom Cisco enic package.
I run Remove-EsxSoftwarePackage -ImageProfile "Foo-Custom-Mine" -SoftwarePackage net-enic
Running Get-EsxSoftwarePackage -Vendor "Cisco" -CreatedAfter 1/1/2010 again still shows the Cisco enic driver
When I run Add-EsxSoftwareDepot I get the following error:
Cannot merge VIBs
<package name> with unequal payloads
Any ideas what I'm missing.
Also, the notes say to run connect-viserver. Why, does this modify something within the vCenter?
Thanks,
Ernie
