Patch bundle for Gen10 SPP 2023.03.00.00

alt56 — Mon, 26 Jun 2023 03:13:21 GMT

Hello,

I installed a new server HPE ML350 Gen10 with VMWare Esxi 7.0U3
I already installed Gen10 Service Pack for ProLiant iso with USB Key

Now I want to install the Patch bundle for Gen10 SPP 2023.03.00.00
This is a 7zip format file : P64601_001_gen10patchbundle-2023.03.00.02-Mar2023MSBGen10PB2023.03.00.02.17.7z

Can you give me the best way to install it in online mode.

Thanks
Regards

Hi @alt56 ,

Use Smart Update Manager (SUM) to install the SPP in online mode.

You can download the smart update manager from this link.

For more information on how to install spp, please refer this guide

You can refer this video:

Thank you!

My problem is for patch bundle install since vmware. Not for SPP.iso

Thanks

Hi @alt56 ,

Hope this helps,

You may follow these procedure to install patch bundle for VMware:

Upload the patch to a datastore on your ESXi host using the Datastore Browser from vCenter Server or a direct connection to the ESXi host using the vSphere Web client.
Note: It is recommends creating a new directory on the datastore and uploading the patch file to this directory.
SSH to the VMware ESXi host
Migrate or power off the virtual machines running on the host and put the host into maintenance mode. Confirm if the host is in maintenance mode by running this command:
esxcli system maintenanceMode get
To enter maintenance mode, use this command: esxcli system maintenanceMode set -enabled true
Navigate to the directory on the datastore where the patch file was uploaded to and verify that the file exists by running these commands:
cd /vmfs/volumes/Datastore/DirectoryName
ls
Where Datastore is the datastore name where the patch file was uploaded to, and DirectoryName is the directory you created on the datastore.
Install or update a patch on the host using these esxclicommands:
To install, Use this command using local setup:
esxcli software vib install -d "/vmfs/volumes/Datastore/DirectoryName/PatchName.zip
Where PatchName.zip is the name of the patch file you uploaded to the datastore.
Note: To install or update a .zip file, use the -d option. To install or update a .vib file use the -v option.
To update, use this command using local setup:
esxcli software vib install -d "/vmfs/volumes/Datastore/DirectoryName/PatchName.zip
Where PatchName.zip is the name of the patch file you uploaded to the datastore.
Verify that the VIBs are installed on your ESXi host:
esxcli software vib list
After the patch has been installed, reboot the ESX host by using the command: reboot
After the host has finished booting, exit maintenance mode and power on the virtual machines.

Thank you!

Hi @alt56 ,

Hope this helps!

Please verify the following and try installing it:

Please try Converting .7z to zip file or extract or unzip the file and try to install it.
Verify the gateway and DNS setting of your VMware ESXi
Make sure your ESXi host is in Maintenance mode
Do not run the command from datastore location. Make sure to use absolute path, use full path to the zip file
Make sure that OS driver or datastore is not full

Thank you!

Hello,

Please follow the below instructions:

- Enable Tech Support Mode on the ESXi host
- Login as root. (You must be root in order to apply the update)
- Place the Smart Component zip file in a temporary directory
- Unzip the file CPXXXXXX.zip
- Ensure that CPXXXXXX.vmexe is executable by using the command:
- chmod +x CPXXXXXX.vmexe
- From the same directory, execute the Smart Component. For example: ./CPXXXXXX.vmexe
- Follow the directions given by the Smart Component
- Logout
- Disable Tech Support Mode on the ESXi host

If the issue persists, We might have to check this on a remote session.
