After successfully upgrading the Auckland vGRID platform we are now upgrading the Hamilton vGRID Hypervisor Platform to VMware vSphere 6.7. The work performed will be the upgrade of the Platform Services Controller and vCenter server to version 6.7U3. This work has no impact on the running of customer virtual servers but will mean that management of the workloads including provisioning and reconfiguration is not possible during this window. Please ensure that any planned maintenance of your virtual servers is not scheduled for this maintenance window.
We will then upgrade the ESXi hosts that make up the cluster to 6.7U3 in a controlled fashion over a number of days. This work is also intended to be non-impacting.
Please contact the service desk at support@vgrid.nz if you have any questions or concerns about the work to be performed.
