esxi/acceptance-level

Set the ESXi software install acceptance level.

Setting this param and running the task esxi-acceptance-level will set the ESXi node software VIB install acceptance level. NOTE that as per VMware defined policies and behavior, you may NOT set the acceptance level to a level any higher than the lowest level install software VIB package.

Currently, the RackN DRP-Agent and DRP-Firewall-Ruleset VIBs require that the acceptance level be set at CommunitySupported. If these components are installed (as they are by default) you will not be able to raise the level.

The default value is CommunitySupported. The supported values are (from highest to lowest):

  • VMwareCertified
  • VMwareAccepted
  • PartnerSupported
  • CommunitySupported
