hi @all
i have a question concerning the upgrade from an original vmware esxi 5.0 (free version!) on a HP Proliant DL 380 G7 with HP P2000 G3 MSA SAS attached to esxi 5.1
can i use the hp customized image for this upgrade or should i use the "VMware-ESXi-5.1.0-799733-depot.zip" from VMWare?
https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/details?downloadGroup=HP-ESXI-5.1.0-GA-10SEP2012&productId=285
i have several HP drivers and e.g. the HP ESXi Offline Bundle installed...
how can i preserve the 3rd party installed drivers and bundles when i upgrade? are the 3rd party drivers and bundles compatible with esxi 5.0? (i thought it would be great if i can upgrade to the HP Customized image because everything i need is integrated in this image :-) )
someone did this before? i have to do this on a production system and i really dont have any other HP hardware to test the upgrade vom vmware esxi 5.0 to hp customized esxi 5.1
thanks for your help!
kind regards
Klaus
