I was able to resolve the issue using the answer in this post.

updating 6.5 to latest via CLI error

alienAK — Fri, 06 Oct 2023 13:47:01 GMT

I am trying to update a remote EXSI host to the latest version of 6.5. I tried to update it to 6.7 but it failed as it seems the CPU of this server is not compatible with 6.7.
CPU is
`cpuModel = "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L3426 @ 1.87GHz",`

When i try to update it to the latest ESXI verision i get the error below and i cant figure out why. I get the same error when trying to to update to other patches too such as 201912002

[root@host:~] esxcli software vib update --depot /vmfs/volumes/datastore/ESXi650-202210001.zip vmware -v [DependencyError] VIB VMware_locker_tools-light_10.2.0.7253323-8169922 requires esx-version >= 6.6.0, but the requirement cannot be satisfied within the ImageProfile. Please refer to the log file for more details. [root@host:~] vmware -v VMware ESXi 6.5.0 build-4887370

Attached is the esxupdate log.

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you for your response.

I have attached the files you requested.

Is there some way to only take snapshots of the OS vmfs. Data on the data disk changes regularly so does not need snapshots. It sounds like it would also resolve the issue I am seeing.

Hey,

I'm running ESXI 6.5 and every few hours i get the error 'msg.hbacommon.outofspace:There is no more space for virtual disk 'XXXX.vmdk' and the VM stops. I can get the VM back up and running again by deleting a snapshot but the issue just happens again a few hours later.

Looking at the data store it shows nearly full but only about 700GB of the 1TB is provisioned. If i check the disk uage on the VM it is taking up no where near the amount ESXI says it is. about 200GB. I only have a couple of snapshots left so dont think I will be able to get the VM back running.

The disks allocated to the VM are Thin provisioned and this host only has 2 VMs the one with the issue and another that is running pfsense.

Info about the VM.

2 vmfs connected, one for OS(50GB) and another for data(600GB). the data one is the one that is filling up.

The VM is running rclone and has a couple of gdrives connected but I do not see how the data drive is filling up as anytime I have checked it is over 50% unused.

Anyone have any idea how to resolve
