Hi,
I tried upgrading the ESX host from 4.0 to ESX 4.1 u2 using VUM, initially the upgrade failed and i was told to update the vCenter Server and VUM to the latest release and build, which i did and now both are at 4.1.0 build 491557.
after upgrading the vcenter server, i uploaded the upgrade file and created the baseline and attached it to the cluster. scanned the cluster and started the remidiation process and got the same error as my last attempt before upgrading the vcenter
fault.com.vmware.vcIntegrity.HostPatchESXUpdateFailure.summary
any suggestions or guidance to help resolve this error..
Thanks
Hi
Do you have updated VUM to vCenter Update Manager 4.1, before update ESXi hosts?
Check your VUM logs (usually “C:\Users\All Users\VMware\VMware Update Manager\Logs” ) for more detail error
Hi Valeriy,
Yes I did updated vCenter Server and Update Manager both to the latest build before attempting the Host upgrade
Ok. Do you can check VUM logs?
Hii,
Check weather the vCenter Update Manager Services are running or not?..
Also check for Port 80, Generally IIS also uses the same port.
Yeah, i tried to go through the VUM logs but could not really identify any specific issue. it is kind a not clear
any way i have opend a SR with VMware and still waiting for resolution.. shall update once i get a specfic answer / RCA..
thanks
Can you attach the related errors VUM logs?
Since you initially created the baseline with vCenter 4.0, did you delete the baseline and create a new Host Upgrade baseline after you upgraded vCenter Server and the Update Manager?
André
Hi Andre,
Yes, after the vCenter and VUM update I removed the upgrade zip file and deleted the baseline and then uploaded the recent ZIP file and created the new baseline.
BTW, I just uploaded the VUM logs in one of my replies as well.
Thanks
Hi Valeriy,
Thanks for the quick response, attached please find the VUM logs for the failed attempt along with the time stamps etc.

VUM log contains following issues:

This VIB supports product ID 'embeddedEsx', but host reports product ID as 'esx'
Item 1.3 can help
the hostname tor-vcenter.applications.reliant.internal is registed to DNS, go to Update Manager Admin, you have an option to resolve the Update manager by IP address. Provide it and try it out
Also using the same Update Manager are you able to download the patches and do the patching on other hosts
