How do I upgrade to ESX 4.0 Update 2 to 4.0 3

Can someone provide me with a way to upgrade from ESX 4.0 update 2 to 4.0 update 3? I found that I can't do this by Vsphere update manager. I have the ESX - 4.0.0 - update03 - 398348.iso file you downloaded, do I need to burn this disc and put in there and start up to it? Who will provide a graphical user interface to upgrade? What are my options? I appreciate any help you can provide.

Thank you

Jeff Koelker

You cannot use the ISO file to upgrade an ESX 4.0 host existing. This is only supported for ESX 3.5 Update 5 guests. Please, take a look at for example http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere4/doc/vsp_esx40_u3_rel_notes.html (supported Upgrade paths to upgrade ESX 4.0 Update 3 host) to find out what options are available.

  • VMware Tools will not be upgraded after ESX 3.5 Update 4

    I just updated our ESX 3.5 Update 4 host and now our VMs show there is an update for VMware Tools.  However, the update fails near the end of the upgrade with error 1722.

    Any thoughts on what could be the cause?

    -Ken

    The solution that works for me for this error to this machine virtual (operating system Windows 2003) was to start the following services.

    • Distributed Transaction Coordinator. (usually a culprit for the failure of the installation I found anyway...)

    • Application system COM +.

    If these services where not started, start this service and retry the update or install.

    You can stop these services (if you want) once Setup is complete

  • the upgrade from ESX 3.5 to 4.1 Server

    Can someone please provide me with any reading of the documents, or video clips on how to upgrade an ESX 3.5 server to ESX 4.1 server.

    If you can send the document to [email protected]

    Please and thank you.

    Hey Bachir - Welcome to the community.

    One of the links above will help - I just generally recommend VMware guide as it is quite complete.

    If you upgrade but, I would say that you are planning to go directly to ESXi, as VMware will stop soon developing ESX - so you can take the great leap forward at a glance and spare you pain in the future.

    Good luck.

  • Direct upgrade from esx 3.5 to esx 4.1

    Hello

    I've already upgraded to vCenter 2.5 to 4.1, now I'm upgraded by train from esx 3.5 to esx 4.1 and all of the articles and videos that I have read say that I need to download the upgrade zip file and do the upgrade through VMware host update utility (as I am only upgrade 2 hosts).

    However, when I try to download the zip file, the only option I get is

    ESX 4.1 Update 1 (updated the ZIP of ESX 4.0)
    Use this package with vCenter Update Manager 4.1 U1 or vihostupdate vCLI or esxupdate command line to upgrade ESX ESX 4.0 to ESX 4.1 update 1.

    Which allows an upgrade to version 4.0 (or if she says).  Can I use this zip file?

    I even went back through all the versions 4.0, and there is no upgrade for 3.5 anywhere zip file?

    How can I make this update of the utility of the upgrade using the host?

    Concerning

    Steven

    In my view, an error in the above steps.

    Are you using ESX and ESXi, you will need to download ESX 4.1 install ISO for upgrade from ESX3.5 to ESX4.1 driver

    You must use vCenter Update manage or esxupgrade.sh for upgrade. No other tool as vihostupdate, host update utility etc. are not supported.

    For more details from vCenter update manager, refer to the admin guide and for esxupgrade.sh, see http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=1009440&sliceId=2&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&dialogID=170100028&stateId=1%200%20170096294

  • Upgrading to ESX 3.5 Server update 5 & VC 2.5 update 6

    Hello

    This should be an easy one for someone. I'm a beginner of VMWare, who needs some advice regarding upgrades.

    Our facility is:

    host of x 2 - ESX 3.5 Update 4

    VirtualCenter 2.5 update 4 current running on the server physical (DB connect to local SQL exp license Mgr.)

    approximately 20 separate stored on SAN virtual computers

    The fiber connection between servers and SAN

    Looking to upgrade to the versions mentioned in the question. Here's what I think I do, can someone please confirm that I have my steps in order? Please correct me if wrong...

    Intend to do a place to upgrade, server downtime is not a problem, planned upgrade at the end of week.

    -Updated VirtualCenter

    -Shutdown VMs boot from CD to update5 (created from ISO download) and I guess here I can update guests individually

    -Then to update data warehouses SAN - how can I do this?

    -Then update virtual machines

    -Then update the VMware tools on the virtual machines

    -Updated models

    -Other stuff like Bishop Update upgrade an other plugins etc.

    Also, what are the importance of backups for an update like this, that is not a major version update (i.e. 2.x to 3.x)?

    Help is very appreciated!

    Hello

    I would like to do this way:

    1. Update Virtual Center Update 6 (make a full DB backup before update) - use MSSQL 2005 studio - works well

    2. updated - vmware update manager

    3. vMotion the VMS of off ESX1 to ESX2

    4. ESX1 upgrade (up to you, you can use the update - faster, you can use the command line, or start from ISO and perform the upgrade

    5. vMotion the VMS of off ESX2 to ESX1

    6. upgrade ESX2

    7. upgrade VMware Tools on VM - restart required after migration

    8. do not upgrade the virtual hardware, it will always be in version 4

    9. do not put VMFS data warehouses up-to-date

    About backup, the backup only what you need to do is to Virtual Center Database, it would be improved during the update of the VC server.

  • How can I upgrade to 10 64-bit Windows?

    Hello

    I have a Travelmate B115-M and I upgraded from Windows Pro 8.1 to Windows 10. The problem is that it automatically upgraded to 10 32-bit Windows. The drivers from the Acer website are all 64 bits. I tried 2 times, the second time, do a clean install, but now I can't go back to 8.1 for Windows because it doesn't show the option anymore.

    So, how can I upgrade from Windows 10 32-bit on Windows 64-bit?

    Thanks in advance,

    John Lewis

    Well, finally I've upgraded to 64-bit Windows 10. The solution was to go to the Windows website and choose the option to install on another PC, downloaded the file on a USB key and do a clean install.

    Thank you.

    Hi there; Please tell me how I can upgrade Vista 32 Bit to 64 bit Vista on a Sony laptop?
    Without having to install a new 64-bit version and then I lose my Sony laptop platform,.

    that would prevent me from making the web.

    The disc tells me that the upgrade function is grayed out and pass through the windows!

    But does that mean?

    Peut-there please help me someone?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    There is no way to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit; they are different operating systems.

    It must be done with a new installation of the 64-bit operating system.

    First thing to do is to check with Sony to see if 64-bit drivers are available for your machine:
