Hi Guillermo,
The recommended ESXi build number needs to be as described in the Bill of Materials, so for VCF 5.2.1 it is 8.0 Update 3b 24280767.
Don't take the risk that you eventually may have to start the bring-up process over as the ESXi version is not supported. If you require patches or hotfixes later, you can do it after the bring-up via SDDC Manager.

Subject: Help! VCF 5.2.1 - Cloud Builder "ESXI Host Configuration Validation"
Good morning, dear friends, I need help. I am running the validation from the Clouf Builder Appliance and I have a "Warning" regarding the version of my ESXi. It tells me the following:
"ESXi Host xxxx.xxx.xx build is 24414501 newer than 24280767"
The version where the hosts are located is more recent, is there a problem with this? Can I continue if I have this warning? Or does it have to be version 24280767?
Thank you very much.
