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
