Update proliant bl460c g6 from vsphere 5.1 to 5.1 u1

[Pazzoide1976]

Hello,

I have a question to ask.

I have to update my infrastructure from version 5.1 to version 5.1 of vSphere u1.

To make the installation of vSphere 5.1 was used the image VMware-ESXi-5.1.0-799733-HP-5:34:23 because the servers are ProLiant BL460c G6.

Now I want to understand how to proceed to install the update.

I would like to do the following:

- I download the patch 5 u1 via update manager from vmware repository

- I insert the repository hp (http://vibsdepot.hp.com/index.xml) to install all the HP Software Bundles available as described in the link http://vmwaredepot.blogspot.it/2012/05/updating- hp-esxi-image-using-vsphere.html to perform the installation by VUM

This is the correct procedure to perform the update of customized vsphere image?

thanks

greetings

Preffered is to use VMware update manager. Of course you can include any new drivers from hp depot.

Process is smooth and working great. Go ahead.
