  • 1.  What happened to KB 2151749?

    Posted Oct 25, 2017 03:43 PM

    I noticed this morning that the KB article titled "ESXi host fails with PSOD after upgrading to 6.5" is blank/missing.  Has this issue been resolved?  Was it some sort of false positive?  Can we stop being worried about upgrading our hosts to ESXi 6.5 Update 1 even if they have 10Gb NICs in them?

    Here's the link to the original KB:

    Thanks!

    Hi!

    It could be marked as internal only. Usually this happens when VMware has to verify solution or edit article itself.

    You need to contact VMware support to get clarification on this.

    The article definitely needs some more precise details.

    They've removed "Update 1" from the KB title, which indicates the issue is not specific to Update 1.

    Also, in the Resolution section, it lists "Downgrade ESXi to 6.0 U2" as a workaround. This is additional confirmation the issue is known to exist in 6.5 prior to U1. The presence of "U2" here makes me wonder if the issue also exists in ESXi 6.0 U3, although there's nothing else to indicate that.
