Currently there is no resolution for this, but the KB offers the following workarounds:

  • Contact HP support and request an updated HP Custom Image for ESXi 5.5 Update 1.
  • Upgrade the host using the HP 5.5 Update 1 March 2014 image and then apply latest patches.
  • Build a custom ISO with HP 5.5 Update 1 June 2014. Remove the Broadcom NX2 packages and replace with the older version from the HP 5.5 GA build available here. Use this modified image to upgrade the hosts.
