Download and Installation

VIMPATCH package provides an autorun with Patch All button.

1. Mount the VMware-VIMPatch-T-6.5.0-7312210.iso to the system where the vCenter Server component is installed.
2. Double-click ISO_mount_directory/autorun.exe

vCenter Server Java Components Update wizard opens.

1. Click Patch All.

When you double-click the Patch All button, patches are applied to the existing products by launching the corresponding Windows installer packages. Autorun displays the patch results at the end.

Note:

• During the patch process, the Management Software undergoes a downtime as the patch restarts the services.
• vSphere Update Manager activities like Remediation of Hosts etc., are not supported while patching vSphere Update Manager.
• Systems where all vCenter Server components exist on a single system (Simple Install system), VIMPATCH can be applied only once to update all components. On a distributed system, you need to patch the components on each system individually.
