#Vsphere 5.5 check new notifications queued update#On the machine you are installing the Update Manager server or the UMDS, open a command line interface and type the following command:.Workaround: To workaround this issue, perform the following steps: #Vsphere 5.5 check new notifications queued install#If on the system where you are installing the Update Manager server or the UMDS there is an existing instance of Microsoft SQL 2008 R2 SP2 database, when you attempt to install the Update Manager server or the UMDS if you select the option to install the bundled database (Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Express), the installer stops responding. Update Manager installer stops responding if you already have Microsoft SQL 2008 R2 SP2 database on your system.My VMware database is on SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1. I also have a Backup Exec Server on this host that use a SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2. I found in the release note of Update Manger u2 that install it on a host that have a SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 may be a problem. The installer start to install after asking the login and failed. #Vsphere 5.5 check new notifications queued upgrade#I can't upgrade Update Manager from 5.5.0 u1 to 5.5.0 u2d (maybe it's the same that 5.5.0 u2). I answered this in case someone else runs across this problem. You have to do your normal shut down the vms and put in maintenance mode to update.Īfter that shut down the clone and delete it.īring up the original vCenter Server and change the ip and reboot. Once you get Update Manager running you can scan and do the update for the host. You will loose connectivity to the Update Manager Plugin because of the ip address change. Make sure you give the vCenter Server services enough time to come up before you log on. I booted the clone and change the ip address and rebooted.(It will not let you use the ip address of the original server, it still sees the ip address of that server on the network). I deleted the dns entry on my dns server that pointed to it and flush the cache. I changed the ip address of the original server before I shut it down. I cloned the vm with vCenter Server on it. I have had these questions out there for 2 days and no one seems to be able to answer them.Ĭan someone answer this one question: Is it possible to update the ESXi host that vCenter server is install on, with some sort of schedule that will shut down the vms(even the one that vCenter is install on) and put it in to maintenance mode and run the updates on the ESXi host. Is there a way to move these vms around when you don't have centralize storage? If I shut down the vm with Update Manager on it, how will it update the host its on? Should I allow every update to update? If not, how do you chose which updates to update. Question: How do I go about updating these host? I know the windows server vms have to be shut down. These windows vms are production servers. Update Manager is installed on that windows vm also. I have VMWare VCenter Server installed on one of the windows vms that has the 2 vms. I have 2 ESXi 5.5 hosts with 2 virtual machines(WS 2008R2) on one and 1 virtual machine(WS2008R2) on the other.
