• Version number VMware update manager

  I want to install vmware updatemanager, but it displays: this server vcenter isn't compatile with vmware Update Manager.

  My version of vcenter server is: 5.1.0 build 123532

  My 08 R2 64-bit system

  I want to use vmware update manager update my vmware environment. So what version of MUV is necessary the download, thanks!

  Yes, you can download 5.5 and the environment 5.1 to 5.5.

  You will need to start by vCenter, then ESXi hosts.

  After you are done before the two, you can go ahead and install VUM.

  Another option is to upgrade vCenter, install VUM and then upgrade of servers using AUVS.

• Create virtual machines in a cluster with vCenter Lab Manager?

  Hi, I will be putting in place of Lab Manager in the near future.  I already have virtual machines in the vsphere cluster I want to start dealing with Lab manager. Should I remove these virtual machines before the implementation of labmanger?  I'll still be able to create and host virtual machines outside the sottware to labmanger, on the hosts in the cluster of Lab Manager?

  Thanks for the help

  Raymond Golden

  VCP3, VCP4, MCSA,Net, was DRY.

  Yes, you can certainly mix "regular" VM and VM Lab Manager in the same cluster.  Just Lab Manager server knows nothing about the virtual machines created in vCenter.

  You could also separate them from resource pools... Director of the laboratory can be assigned to just use a pool of resources rather than the entire cluster.

• Issue of Update Manager (version 4.1)

  I know, I know... I ask 1 million questions on these forums.  But! -in my defense, I walked into an environment that has no documents, no resources and no one with any real knowledge of what's going on. Ok? :-)
  
  Now, we want to implement the Update Manager in our environment.  I see that there are various updates and releases it to 4.1.  Is it a situation of having to download the original and then install other on it? Or can you just download and install the latest version?
  
  Thank you!

  Always use the version of the update manager that comes with vCenter Server. Take a look at http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/sim/interop_matrix.php to find out which products are compatible with each other.

• Update Manager 4.1 compatibility with VSphere 5

  I have not seen a version 5 for Update Manager, but the documentation for 4.1 says it works with VSphere at the same level (e.g. 4.1 works with VSphere 4).  4.1 Update Manager work with VSphere 5?  Thanks in advance.

  You can find Update Manager 5.0 in vCenter Server 5.0 installation package. Update Manager 4.1 can't handle the newer hosts.

• upgrade esx 4.0 to esx 4.1 with Update Manager

  I'm trying to update the host esx 4.0 to esx 4.1.  The documentation I've read says that you can do this with the Update Manager in vCenter server.  I'm new to vmware/esx/vCenter esx and has just installed 4 a few months ago.  I'm following the instructions contained in the vCenter Update Manager Administration Guide.  I've already updated vCenter Server 4.1 and the guide is for version 4.1.  Top of page 90, say the instructions open the Update Manager and then choose the tab that says "host upgrade releases.  I don't see this as an option.  When I open the Update Manager, I see the following tabs: Getting Started, baselines and groups, Configuration, events, repository of Patch and that's it.  What Miss me?  I've read about this update 4.1 since last week and followed the 4.0 to 4.1 upgrade guide.  I want to download the upgrade zip I have download VMware but have no idea how to get it in the Update Manager.  Help, please.

  Thank you

  Kristi

• Update and vCenter Device Manager

  Anyone can confirm, the unit against the windows of vcenter does not update Manager contain? We have licensed Essentials and for 2 downloads, the device seems to have several missing features compared to the windows version? I'm under unit now, and there is no option to "search for updates" when I right click on the host. I just want to confirm that this is the case until I am forced to switch to a platform of Windows riddled safety...

  Update Manager is only available as Windows application/service. In order to manage, you need either vCenter Server 6.0 Update 1 (see vSphere Update Manager (VUM) 6.0.1 - integration of customer Web - VMware Blogs) or the vSphere of Windows-based Client.

  Anyway, with an edition of Essentials, which is a maximum of 3 guests - I would consider actually to patch the host manually rather than to the maintenance of an installation of the Update Manager.

• Configure the 5.5 Update Manager to use a different version of MSXML for security reasons

  Versions:

  vCenter 5.5

  Update Manager 5.5

  5.5 ESXi

  Hello.  Looks like that the 5.5 Update Manager uses C:\Windows\SysWOW64\msxml4.dll which is marked as critical vulnerability.  We must deal with the most recent version.  The dll update no problem, but how do I get the Update Manager to look at the recently deployed MSXML dll?

  Thanks in advance for any info you can provide,

  Jamey

  VMware said it might be fixed in 5.5 U3 and MUV would use MSXML6. 5.5U3 is out today so I hope the solution is there.
