This is an updated video of Part 19: HOW TO: Update VMware ESXi 7.0U1 to ESXi 7.0U2a using VMware vSphere Lifecycle Manager (vLCM).

This video took over 7 hours to record to Remediate the vSphere Cluster, don't worry in post we were able to reduce to approximately 35 minutes, the reasons were issues which we discuss as we troubleshoot the cluster, as we remediate the cluster.

Issues encountered, which we discuss and remedy throughout the video

  • Failed to vMotion - caused by incorrect network speed.
  • Failed to vMotion - caused by different generation CPU.
  • Failed to remediate a host  - caused by incompatible VIBs.
  • Failed to remediate a host  - caused by unknown error.
  • Server failed to boot - caused by failing ECC memory modules.
