On March 15th VMware has released the Update 2 for vSphere 6.
The VMware Host Client is one cool new feature of the ESXi update. HTML5 based and used for configuring standalone ESXi Host. You can also configure vCenter controlled ESXi Host, but there are often better ways with the central vSphere Web Client.
The list of my articles with “Update vCenter Appliance” is growing :)
This article explains the update to version 6.0.0 U2 (6.0.0.20000) of the VMware vCenter Server Appliance.
In my older articles I described the updates for earlier versions
I prefer the update via Webinterface, but do also watch the progress with the console.
In my article http://blog.ganser.com/975 I described the update from the first version of vCenter Server Appliance 6 to the Update 1. The update needs to connect an ISO image and CLI commands to be installed.
In vCenter Server Appliance you could go the same way or update via Webinterface.
On January 22nd VMware Release Notes added a hint, what to do if the installer stuck at 70%. Read more at the end of my install steps.
Attention!
After installing Update 1 I’m getting the following error message when I log into the WebClient or click on the Customer Experience Improvement Program.
Migrations via WebClient also could not be startet because the wizards hangs at “choose network”
I’ve opened a call – stay tuned :)
Update 06.10.2015
I solved the problem by myself. I’ve backup the database, roles and permissions from the vCSA, installed a new one and restored the database, roles and permissions to it. Now everything is working and I am happy…
I’ve documented the whole procedure in this blog post (Backup vCSA and restore data on new vCSA)
My first install of vCSA runs in the same error and I got the same message “Error occured while…”. I could resolve this by deny the internetaccess for the vCSA. After that the installation ends with the functional vCenter Server Appliance :)
Yesterday (10 September 2015) VMware released vCenter Server 6.0. U1
Two month after the release of vCenter Server 6.0.0b the Update1 resolves issues in security, storage Web-/vSphere Client, VM management and HA/FT.
The full list of fixes can be found in the Release Notes for vCenter 6.0 Update 1.
Two days ago VMware released the second version of vCenter Server 6.0.0.
After four month the update delivers some bugfixes for SSO, security, storage, installation and upgrade. The full list of fixes can be found in the Release Notes for vCenter 6.0.0b.
In my last “upgrade” article I discribe how to upgrade from vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 5.5.0 to vCSA 6.0.0
The update could be installed via CMD and mounted ISO in the vCSA.
