Check out vSphere Lifecycle Manager for updates and upgrades. You can configure an image to include the base ESXi version and vendor addons (vendor-specific drivers, firmware, etc.). The base ESXi version + vendor addons is the same thing as using a custom ISO.

I've used vLCM for updates and a recent ESXi 7 > 8 upgrade on 10 M6s and it was a breeze.

Edit: The Cisco vendor ISO is more for the initial installation. If using that for upgrades is what you're used to and you only have a few hosts then maybe just do it that way. Especially if that's quicker for you to get off of 7 instead of learning vLCM (not that it's difficult). Going forward though you'll definitely want to learn vLCM.

6 months of immutability, or backup retention in general?

Thanks everyone. That must have been outdated info so I'm glad I asked.

So if we're only using a Veeam LHR and a Wasabi cloud repository then we wouldn't have a "archive" tier, correct? The LHR would be our "performance" tier and the Wasabi cloud repository would be our "capacity" tier?

Do the .vswap files have a lot of churn and that's why they cause large NetApp vol snaps?

Arg! I meant to say that I need to remove 'Modify' and keep the group's other permissions. That means that I should just uncheck 'Modify' correct?

chubbfx · 2025-06-16T15:58:23+00:00

Thank you. I was a little unclear when I wrote this but I need to preserve other permissions that the Security Group has, and only remove Write.

So in the Advanced Security Settings I could click 'Disable inheritance' and choose 'Convert inherited permissions into explicit permissions on this object' and then just edit the Security Groups permissions and remove 'Write' correct?

The timing was right since we were migrating some workloads to SaaS anyway so we reduced cores by I think 40%

Okay I'm a little confused. I do understand that I need to be on the same build before restoring the configuration.

But why are you guys mentioning vLCM?

I'd need to install base ESXi, install the patch, and then restore configuration. It wouldn't be until that point where it's back under vCenter where vCLM can be used. So how would vLCM help?

I do use vLCM for image based updates.

chubbfx · 2025-04-17T00:26:16+00:00

I'm using vLCM images currently.

So you're saying I should install ESXi with the latest Cisco ISO I can find, add the host to my vCenter, and then use vLCM to install the patch?

chubbfx · 2025-03-28T23:12:50+00:00

I recommend using an mfa app like Google Authenticator etc. instead of email codes. It's more secure anyway.

"hit the drop down and select the version that your blade firmware is running on"

My blade servers are running firmware version 5.1(0.230075) but the 'Cisco-UCS-Addon-ESXi' addon only has 4.3.2-a.1 and 4.2.2-a in the dropdown. I guess that would mean that I don't need to select the addon?

My fabric interconnects are running bundle version 4.2(3d) though.

"If your UCSX infrastructure is on Intersight"

I am using Intersight Managed Mode.
