Note: The offline bundle can also be installed from VMware vCenter Update Manager as a patch. To install the bundle from ESXi host, transfer the zip file onto the ESXi host local path, then execute the below command: # esxcli software vib install -d Īfter the bundle is installed, reboot the ESXi host for the updates to take effect. The CONREP Utility enables server hardware configuration capture, set and duplication. The TESTEVENT utility generates test WBEM indication and test SNMP trap. SSACLI can be used in the configuration of HPE Smart Array controllers and attached storage. HPONCFG can be used to set up and reconfigure the iLO (Integrated Lights-Out) management controller of a server.īOOTCFG can be used to set up the boot configuration for the server. The HPE ESXi Utilities Offline bundle for VMware vSphere 6.x includes a few utilities for configuration of servers. If HPE Utilities are not installed, you can download the utilities bundle file from here : ESXi 6.5 and ESXi 6.7 and install it yourself.
If you also need to install these utilities, please read further. To see how can you achieve this and also to get more information about these tools, jump to HPONCFG Utility options. We used one of these utilities ( HPONCFG ) to reboot the iLO and after that the iLO started to respond again. Luckily, on our servers there was installed a HPE customized ESXi image which has available the HPE ESXi utilities. All the installation was done remotely, so there was no physical access to the servers. Even the ESXi patches were installed successfully and the ESXi hypervisor started correctly, the iLO interface couldn’t be reached anymore. Have you ever upgraded the ESXi software on HPE Servers and after reboot iLO did not come up anymore? Well, this is what happened to me after installation of ESXi software patches on a couple of HPE servers.
