Re: vSphere ESXi 5.0 comparability matrix list

I hink you need to update the iscsi driver as well if you want to use the HP image. There's also a special driver available on the vmware site.

Re: vSphere ESXi 5.0 comparability matrix list

Has anyone experienced similar problems with the the BL465-G7 blade ??  It has the NC551i variant of this Emulex CNA, All the previous reports in this thread refer to the NC553i as found in the Intel blades.

 

thanks,

For NC551i (OCe10102) you also have to use a new driver available from vmware site.

Yes, updated image, but still without updated driver. You still need to download from vmware site.

Try the Esxi5 Driver Rollup 1 Cd/DVD.  Boot this, apply it, and it will install v4.0.355.1.  Maybe flash the firmware to the latest as well.  I did both of these and it seems to have solved the problem.  VM's now work on a vswitch with VLANs.

The Driver Rollup CD does not do any firmware update. HP should release  the new firmware again.

The latetest HP exsi release (october) now contains the updated driver. The new firmware (4.0.360.7) is also available. For more information see: c03005737
