Need to comfirm compatibility with new VMware hosts

We have a Nimble CS3000 running OS: 5.0.3.0-562630-opt

Our VMware environment is vCenter 6.5 and hosts (Proliant DL585 G7 @ ESXi 6.0)

We just bought two new DL385 G10s and before I load the VMWare OS, I want to know if I can install ESXi 6.7 on the hosts and the NCM 5.1, and keep vCenter @ 6.5, or do I need to install ESXi 6.5.

I'm assuming the vCenter Nimble management plug in still doesn't work with vCenter 6.7, but can the host OS be 6.7?

vCenter 6.5 does not support managing ESXi 6.7 hosts.

Hi

The latest NOS 5.0.3.0 supports vCenter 6.7.

This is the best resource to confirm all things related to VMware compatibility: https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php.  "What are you looking for" has Servers/Systems selected by default.  Change it to Storage/SAN, select Nimble Storage from the partners list and you can see we are listed for 6.7U1 as well now.  Please upgrade vCenter to the latest before upgrading your ESXi hosts, as mentioned by @SprinkleJames
