[cach_support]

hi everybody,

i really don't get it, may be a dummy question, however i searched around for quite some time now.

is 3248547 the latest version of Hypervisor 5.5? or is it 5.5.0-Update3-3568722 or even 6480324 ?

my sources so far: VMware ESXi Release and Build Number History | Virten.net  https://esxi-patches.v-front.de/ESXi-5.5.0.html 

kind regards

Mike

Welcome to the Community,

the binaries are the same for each edition, it's only the license key which makes the difference. VMware provides downloadable iso images for different - but not for all - updates/builds. You can however update/patch ESXi to the latest build if you want. As an alternative to downloading the patches from the VMware website, you can use e.g. the PowerCLI script from the v-front.de site to create your own installation image, or offline bundle.
