First, I would start with the latest image (which just came out yesterday) 

https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=OEM-ESXI67-HPE&productId=742

Also, see a couple articles I found:

Wouldn't you use 'update' instead of 'install' in the esxli command? Here it is mostly filled out, just update your vmfs path. 

esxcli software profile update -p HPE-ESXi-6.7.0-Gen9plus-670.10.3.5.6 -d /vmfs/volumes/your_datastore/VMware-ESXi-6.7.0-9484548-HPE-Gen9plus-670.10.3.5.6-Sep2018-depot.zip

Make sure you update your blade firmware with the 2018.09 SPP (also just came out yesterday). It is best practice to have that run before running the new OS.
