VMware has been offering Update 1 for version 8 of its unique virtualization platform, VMware vSphere.
We also received this product directly from VMware directly from VMware, according to the usual routine of this product, and we provided it to you without any interference and with the original name.
The main server manufacturers, HPE and Dell, both simultaneously with the VMware version، Present their own customized version of ESXi, which is in the same post.
In this update, we see a lot of changes, which are mostly in the field of better support for GPUs. In addition, a new feature has been added called configuration profile, which allows you to put a setting in the form of a profile and tell vSphere to make sure everyone is on top ESXi in your infrastructure, the same settings apply. To study the full Release Notes of this update, you can use it for ESXi from This page And for vCenter of This page Use VMware’s official documentation ( which, of course, has almost the same content as ).
As with ESXi, as always, both ISO for new installation and Offline Bundle for updating your current version.
There has been a lot of talk on the site about Offlline Bundle and how to install it، So I’m not repeating those words, and that’s enough to use Offline Bundle to update your current ESXi, and how it’s installed is similar to Patch. If you are not familiar with how to install Patch.
In relation to vCenter, both Installer and Update Bundle and Full patch are provided. Using Installer provided in ISO format، So much so that you can mount this disk on your operating system and give it your Hypervisor username and password (, which is most likely ESXi ), and let it work. The second file is a ZIP file that allows you to update your vCSA offline to this version of vCenter that I already have in One of my posts I explained how to use it. Finally, the third file is also called Full Patch or FP, which is given to you, given that some people are following this model of update. How to use it too This post I explained.
I would like to remind you that VMware has provided another version of vCenter for Windows Server operating system from version 7, and only as a Linux-based Appliance that is both VMware vCenter Server Appliance Or vCSA for short, this product is provided.
You can still use the previous likes provided for version 8, which I have for convenience،
I hope it will be useful for my dear colleagues and companions.
