With your cluster or host selected, choose Attach Baseline. Our next step will be to attach the baseline to the cluster. We have downloaded the Patches and the Baseline is created. Review the baseline selections and press Finish when complete. If you don’t want to go through that trouble, the HPE Advisory also states the Release Date.
#HPE VMWARE VSPHERE 6.5 DRIVER#
By checking the HPE software repository, we could determine the 2.6.2-2 release includes the required hp-ilo driver (650.10.0.2). Select the patch to include in the baseline. We will select Fixed since we are only upgrading this driver once. Fixed baselines contain only patches that you select, regardless of new patch downloads. Next, select the type of patch baseline to use.Īs per VMware, dynamic patch baselines contain a set of patches, which updates automatically according to patch availability and the criteria that you specify. In this instance, we will choose Host Patch. Enter the Name and select the Baseline Type. Navigate to the Host Baselines tab and select New Baseline. Next, we will add the pertinent patches to a Baseline. Progress can be monitored in the Recent Tasks pane. Select the newly added Source and click Download Now to download the patches. NOTE – If you don’t have an internet connection, you can manually import the patches from a local. In our case, the HPE repository is located at. In the Add Download Source window, enter the download source URL. Select Add under Direct connection to Internet. Click the Edit button to add the download source. Click the Manage tab, Download Settings under the Settings tab. Select the vCenter Server under Navigator.
#HPE VMWARE VSPHERE 6.5 UPDATE#
To do so, navigate to Update Manager from the vCenter Server Web Client. The easiest way to obtain HPE patches is by downloading them from their online repository. In our next step, we will move to vSphere Update Manager to add and download pertinent patches from the HPE repository. Here we can see this host is running the affected driver iLO driver (650.10.0.1-24). Once logged into the host, run the esxcli software vib list command searching for strings matching HP. To begin, enable and initiate an SSH session to the host. In our instance, we will check the ESXi host(s) for the affected HP driver.

Resolved by upgrading the hpe-ilo driver to version 650.10.0.2 or later. VMware ESXi 6.5 host fails with a Purple Screen Diagnostic, indicating that CPU XX / World XXXXXX tried to re-acquire a lock. Issue Background – HPE Advisory regarding Proliant servers deployed using the hpe-ilo driver version 65.10.0.1-24. Despite this being a very specific patch, the general patch procedure can be applied to other driver updates as well. That being the case, it seemed fitting to go through the patch process for the affected iLO driver in this post.

In a vSphere 6.5 troubleshooting post, we discussed a PSOD issue stemming from a specific HP iLO driver.

Today I wanted to run through the process used to patch HP drivers on an ESXi host specifically through Update Manager.
