ESXi 5.5.0 release build 1331820 PSoD

Hi

I had the purple screen of death when adding a new VM to the host earlier.  Error:
space 08/12 disk dump: partial dump: out of space.

I rebooted it and all is working.
Is there anything i should/can check?

Thanks

and does this version still ask about 'moved' or 'copied' VMs?  In which case do i select copied?
VMs are local to the host...

What about v5.5.0 to v6.0.0?

off-topic, and nothing to do with PSOD.

and does this version still ask about 'moved' or 'copied' VMs?  In which case do i select copied?
VMs are local to the host...

again off-topic, please post a new question for the above.

your guide is for 5.1 to 5.5.  Assume the same process, or not?
its linked to the upgrade requirements so not really...

Come on Andrew..

In my post https:#a41732835

after posting a link to my EE Article, I've also typed!

(same method to upgrade 5.5 to 5.5 later patches, just change file names)

and I also give you the commands to update to the latest update, using the Web Update method.

You must have missed that line!

do you require any more additional help to close out this question.
