How can I install patches for ESX4i using the update utility?

Asked by rdefino in VMware, Microsoft Virtual Server, Virtualization

Tags: vmware

I have a standalove ESX4i server. The Vcenter system is a VM on that ESX server, so I cannot update the esx using the vcenter, since I have to shut down the vm before patching.

So I tried using the Vsphere host update utility. But after I scan for patches and download them. I get an error when it tries to update usign the zip file it downloaded.

What am i doing wrong?
