TAM Lab Nano - Updating VMware Tools in vSphere 7

Показать описание

It used to be that VMware Tools was tied to the version of ESXi installed on a host. However, with recent VMware Tools versions, VMware Tools is now decoupled with the version of ESXi installed on a host and Tools can easily be updated! You no longer need to update ESXi to get the latest features in VMware Tools!

Join Bill Hill (Staff Technical Account Manager) in this quick Nano lab as he updates a vSphere 7 environment to the latest version of VMware Tools using vSphere Lifecycle Manager.

Thank you for this. As someone else mentioned, there's a milllion videos for updating VMware tools on a VM, but not much for updating it at the host level. Thank you!

DUDE! THANK YOU!!! A million & one videos on pushing vmware tools to a VM and nearly nothing on updating the available tools installer on the cluster themselves. This was EXACTLY what I was looking for!!! I.O.U. A BEER!

Hello,
Why choose patch when you created the baseline ? In which case should we use Upgrade please ?

Kevin

Great Video...
i have a question here, so are this process need downtime for esxi host?

Catskeep

Just to confirm, pushing out the update to ESXi hosts has no negative impact on the VMs running on those hosts being remediated?

dantzlerken

Vms will reboot after upgrade vmtools ?

The video fell a bit short. I was hoping to see if pushed out to VM’s how this process works
