Upgrade di un host esxi 5.5 to 6.5 via CLI (senza update manager)

Potrebbe capitare di avere l'esigenza di dover effettuare un upgrade di release di un host esxi senza disporre dell'update manager, questa procedura permette di farlo da riga di comando.
E' possibile anche collegare la iso nel cd dell'hardware ed eseguire la procedura guidata, ma questa per me è molto più rapida.

Scaricare il pacchetto di installazione Offline Bundle




Caricare il pacchetto sul datastore locale dell’host che si vuole 'upgradare'



ATTENZIONE!
A questo punto spegnere o migrare le eventuali vm presenti sull’host e metterlo in MAINTENANCE MODE

Collegarsi in ssh sull’host e verificare la presenza sul datastore locale del file appena caricato
