    Is't possible to create baseline to update only drivers for Vmware driver for host in 5.5 environment? How?

    You can select from the list of driver/driver updates available and apply the patch.

    If there is a custom driver you have downloaded which is not available in update manager, you can IMPORT PATCHES under patch repository.

    A new baseline can be build with that patch only.

    Hosts are installed by HP image 5.5u2.

    I created new baseline in this way:

    Host baseline: host patch

    Patch options: fixed

    Patches: can I filter only "embeddedEsx 5.5" entries?

    What devices I have to choose? For example, I see multiple NIC as net-igbvib, net-e1000e vib, net-tg3 vib,....

    What specific driver do you want to patch the host with?

    Please share the nic make and model.

    do you need assistance in picking the correct driver for your nic?
