VMware vSphere 7.0 Update 3c was recently released and contains fixes for the critical upgrade bugs discovered in the original Update 3 last November. The new vSphere 7.0 Update 3c also contains fixes for the Apache Log4j vulnerability built into the release and is considered the fixed version for this security bug.
In the video walkthrough we will look at upgrading vCenter Server to vCenter 7.0 Update 3c and also use Lifecycle Manager to upgrade a 4-node vSAN cluster ESXi hosts to ESXi 7.0 Update 3c. We will look at the steps to use the Lifecycle Manager to remediate a vSphere cluster and the new image-based approach for updates, firmware, vendor add-ons, etc.

Merci, Merci, Merci ! C'est tellement plus simple avec une vidéo (et surtout avec le lifecycle manager xD)

Hey please, I still have error when checking for compliance, is there any configuration on vmnic of each host before I proceed ? I only have 2 hosts 7.0.0 and running VCSA Great video Thank you

@IMDan007 Год назад

Thanks for the video. Do you recommend taking a snapshot of VCSA after shutting it down or without shutting down?

@rottenfist220 Год назад

I prefer shutting down.

@manolocerroabajo5646 8 месяцев назад

Great!! I have 2 hosts ESX and what about VMs powered on in each ESX hosts? Are they powered off or migrated to the another ESX? Thx

@YmeRReJ 2 года назад

I checked my vCetner Server Management for update but there is an error " Check the URL and try again". May I know what URL are you using for checking updates?

@luchforte 26 дней назад

Great video, but it looks like this upgrade is for a clean environment, I don't see other datastores and I'm sure you don't have VMs created. Are the steps the same with a production environment? Having VMs and datastore for them?

@nourelhoudanour7025 4 месяца назад

Is this enterprise edition that handle the vmotion of vms compare to standard

@MK-ry3rb 2 года назад

Nice Video. As for your VM's on each host are they all shut down, I am assuming so? If not then you would do each host one at a time, migrating off all VM's to other hosts correct?

@VirtualizationHowto 2 года назад

MK that is correct. My lab cluster wasn't a great example of this since I didn't have any guest VMs running. However, with vLCM image-based remediation or with Update Manager, it rolls through the hosts, either automatically or manually (depending on how you choose), migrates running VMs off the host to other hosts in the cluster, places the host in maintenance mode, remediates, reboots, takes out of maintenance mode and repeats the process across all hosts in the cluster. You are right though, all running VMs must be evacuated from the host before it can proceed.

@MK-ry3rb 2 года назад

@@VirtualizationHowto Ok great so it will do that if you initiate an upgrade at the cluster level! It will take any running VM's and VMotion them to other hosts in that cluster while that host is being Upgraded. Does the VM migration happen before a host is put into Maintenance Mode once the Remediation is initiated or after?

@MK-ry3rb 2 года назад

Also, do you have any videos on upgrading VMWare Tools or VMWare Hardware packs?

@jedijeffvideo 2 года назад

vLCM is nice, but it’s too bad some vendors charge a fortune for the firmware integration into this. It’s ridiculous what Dell charges.

@jimgleason3062 2 года назад

@@jedijeffvideo One of the reasons my company has dumped Dell. Also, The time it took for them to validate their hardware versus other vendors like Cisco.

@sevendown3 Год назад

What about a vsan witness server. Is it updated first along with the other esxi hosts through lifecycle manager?

@VirtualizationHowto Год назад

Sevendown, yes you can update these like any other ESXi host.

@rottenfist220 Год назад

Only annoying part is vCenter install ISO is around 6GB, patches are also around 6GB... It's like re-installing vCenter...

@michalilias 2 года назад

467 minutes to install ? Really ? What is that damn thing doing there for 8 hours ???

@VirtualizationHowto 2 года назад

Michal, fortunately it usually shows some inordinate amount of time on the estimate but never takes that long.

@michalilias 2 года назад

On my first attempt update of vCenter appliance showed me 4 hours. Waited almost 1 hour and than canceled it. Maybe this is that king of job good to schedule it for a night.

@Yolers Год назад

@@michalilias "Waited almost 1 hour and than canceled it" -> vcenter 7.0.2 to 7.0.3 tooke me 1h05. lol..
