VMWare实践(命令行方式升级ESXI6.7到最新版本)

蹉跎莫遣韶光老,人生唯有读书好。这篇文章主要讲述VMWare实践:命令行方式升级ESXI6.7到最新版本相关的知识,希望能为你提供帮助。
1.升级前准备工作升级主机的ESXI系统前一定要先升级好VCSA的版本到最新版本,否则可能会出现VC无法管理最新版本ESXI的问题。
登录官网或者服务器厂家的网站下载到符合服务器标准的最新版本的升级包。
将准备升级的主机上的运行虚拟机等迁移到其他主机运行,并将其转入“维护模式”。

2.升级ESXI到最新官网版本2.1上传下载好的ESXI升级包到要升级的主机的数据存储区
操作建议:最好直接打开浏览器,重新直接用要升级主机的IP地址登录到这台主机ESXI界面去上传数据,集群下可能会报上传权限问题。
找到主机存储 --- 数据存储浏览器 --- 点击进入

上传升级包

记录数据存储的位置信息: 如下图选中的部分,需要复制下来后面命令行下使用



2.2开启主机SSH登录并命令行下升级ESXI
2.2.1开启SSH服务
