Thanks. I am unable to install the 5.x drive in esxi 6u1. The instructions for installing on the older version do not work and I have not been able to get it to work using esxcli or esxupdate. If you have experience installing it pointers would be appreciated. :)
1. Upload the offline bundle (zip file) to a datastore accessible to the vmware host.
2. Place the Host into maintenance mode and enable SSH in host security.
3. Connect to the Host command-line with your SSH client of choice.
4. Verify the offline bundle with the command "esxcli software sources vib list -d file:///
path_offline_bundle.zip"
5. Install the offline bundle with the command "esxcli software vib install -n
plugin_name -d file:///
path_offline_bundle.zip"
6. Reboot the Host
7. Re-connect to Host command-line with your SSH client of choice.
8. Verify the vib was installed with the command "esxcli software vib list | more"
Hope this helps.
