esxi-acceptance-level

Stage to set the patch list for an ESXi node

This task will set ESXi node software VIB install acceptanceLevel. NOTE that as per VMware defined policies and behavior, you may NOT set the acceptanceLevel 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 acceptanceLevel 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
