ESXi host’u upgrade etmenin bir diğer yolu ise depot dosyası ile esxcli üzerinden yani komut satırından upgrade işleminin yapılmasıdır. Bunun için öncelikle aşağıdakil ink’den VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi) Offline Bundle isimli dosyayı indiriyoruz.
https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=ESXI700&productId=974&rPId=44114
Bu dosyayı indirdikten sonra ilk olarak upgrade edeceğimiz ESXi host’un datastore’una upload ediyoruz. Daha sonra ESXi host’un SSH’ına bağlanıyoruz.
İlk olarak vmware -vl komutunu çalıştırıyorum ve mevcut ESXi sürürümünü öğreniyorum. Ardından aşağıdaki komutu çalıştırıyoruz.
[root@localhost:~] vmware -vl
VMware ESXi 6.7.0 build-8169922
VMware ESXi 6.7.0 GA
[root@localhost:~] esxcli software profile update -p ESXi-7.0.0-15843807-standard -d /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/VMware-ESXi-7.0.0-15843807-depot.zip
