7MS #524: How to Update VMWare ESXi From the Command Line

I'm extra psyched today, because today's episode (which is all about updating your VMWare ESXi version via command line) is complemented by video:

Shortly after recording this video, I found this awesome article which walks you through a different way to tackle these updates:

  1. List all upgrade profiles:
esxcli software sources profile list --depot=https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODUCTION/main/vmw-depot-index.xml
  1. Grep for just the ones you want (in my case ESXi 7.x):
esxcli software sources profile list --depot=https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODUCTION/main/vmw-depot-index.xml | grep -i ESXi-7.0
  1. Apply the one you want!
esxcli software sources profile list --depot=https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODUCTION/main/vmw-depot-index.xml | grep -i ESXi-7.0
