About Cisco ACI Virtual Edge Upgrades
Upgrading Cisco ACI Virtual Edge is similar to installing it. You download the Cisco ACI Virtual Edge OVF file from Cisco.com, upload it to the VMware vCenter content library. You then deploy Cisco ACI Virtual Edge on the ESXi hosts.
You perform these upgrade tasks using the Cisco ACI vCenter plug-in only. You cannot use the VMware PowerCLI or a Python script.
Note |
Do not use the vSphere (thick) Client to upgrade Cisco ACI Virtual Edge or modify its vApp properties. Use only the Cisco ACI vCenter plug-in. Use only the vSphere Web Client to modify Cisco ACI Virtual Edge vApp properties. |
