This week VMware released the Update 1g for vCenter Server.
With this update VMware fixes two issues.
First it provides a part of the hypervisor-assisted guest mitigation (CVE-2017-5715) and second it fixes an issue with putting ESXi hosts into an empty EVC Cluster.
The full information about the vCenter updates can be found here: vCenter 6.5 Update 1fg
Version: vCenter Server 6.5 Update 1g (6.5.0.15000)
Build: 8024368

I’m really glad about my fourth star. Thanks to VMware for recognizing me.
Looking forward to be part of the community next year too ;)
Just one month after releasing vCenter Update1e VMware released the Update 1f for vCenter Server.
The Update patches the vCSA operating system (Photon OS) against Spectre-1 (CVE-2017-5753) and Meltdown (CVE-2017-5754).
A patch for the Spectre-2-vulnerability (CVE-2017-5715) is still not availiable.

After upgrading my production vCSA to 6.5 Update 1d a few days ago the complete handling of the vCenter is quite good. The HTML5 Client runs very good, but don’t have all features, so the Java-based Web Client must do some of the work.
One very disturbing thing is the “Your password will expire in xx days”-Message everytime you log in.
But it doesn’t have to. You can configure the time before the reminder appears.
