The solution is simple. The “no space left” is kind of a default “stopper” that shows up — you’re not actually out of space. However, there’s a VIB file that is a prerequisite prior to upgrading to whatever version of ESXI you’re trying to get to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this case, that item is VMware Locker Tools Light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Run the following 3 lines individually to get it installed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cd \/tmp<\/p>
wget http:\/\/hostupdate.vmware.com\/software\/VUM\/PRODUCTION\/main
\/esx\/vmw\/vib20\/tools-light\/VMware_locker_tools-light_10.3.5.10430147-12986307.vib<\/p>esxcli software vib install -f -v \/tmp\/VMware_locker_tools-light_
10.3.5.10430147-12986307.vib<\/p><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Now you can run your upgrade. I typically use this website as a nice resource<\/a> for my upgrades to my ESXI hosts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
