Sorry, I am quite a newbie.
Can someone kindly advise me on how to update my ESXi from either 5.1.0 & 5.1.0a to 5.1.0b using the update manager ?
Is there a way to update without having to use the ISO (by means of installing patches) ?
I have 2 main issues :
1. Cannot upgrade from update manager (someone helped me create a baseline using downloaded "VIMsetup" ISO)
- Hosts get disconnected with weird error from console (sorry no screenshot as I found out that this was a NIC driver issue much later)
- Stuck at 26% (if using update manager)
- some weird message at console, can only display or list some config
2. Cannot perform direct upgrade from iso or bootable discs on Dell 12G servers (Dell R320 & R620)
- No NIC found (if using discs or virtual discs via iso mount)
