Can we schedule for Bulk VM's Hardware version upgrade at particular time ?

Hello Everyone, of VM's

Can we schedule for Bulk VM's Hardware version upgrade at particular time ?  I know we cn schedule the Hardware compatibility of a VM's but in host there might be multiple VM's running and we cant downtime for all VM's. Is there any option in VUM for scheduling the bulks VM's HW upgrade ? Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Hmmm?

- VUM can upgrade vHW and VM Tools for VM(s)

- VUM have a scheduler to specify exact date/time

- VUM lets make you different scheduling for running, shutdown, suspended VMs

- VUM lets make you select the VMs you want. You can select by hand or run the selection on a VM folder

Isnt this what you want?

Just start the remediation and take a look to step 3. (Schedule).  Its self explained and exactly that what youre asking for. Its build into VUM and works out of the box.
