Hi, is it supported to apply VMware ESXi 7.0 Update 3p. This release resolves CVE-2024-22252, CVE-2024-22253, CVE-2024-22254, and CVE-2024-22255. For more information on these vulnerabilities and their impact on VMware products, see VMSA-2024-0006.

What is the policy regarding updates and security patches that result in a higher build thant the support matrix ?

Good day Convergo!

SimpliVity will shortly publish a Customer Notice on this most recent patch from VMware, ESXi 7.0 U3p. 

SimpliVity plans to release a SimpliVity ESXi 7.0 U3p Custom Offline Bundle near the end of May 2024.  If a customer cannot wait for the SimpliVity custom bundle we recommend they consume the patch directly from VMware.  Refer to the ESXi 7.0 U3p release notes for installation.  Our data shows that over 500 customer nodes have successfully installed the ESXi 7.0 U3p patch. 

The SimpliVity Interoperability Guide will be updated once the SimpliVity ESXi 7.0 U3p Offline Custom Bundle is released.­

Cheers!
