We have a small vSphere Environment using the Essentials edition. We have no Update Manager. To update we (virtually – using iLO) mount the installation .iso, boot from it and choose “upgrade” in the installation process. This process always worked fine – so far.
Attempting to upgrade from HP vSphere 5.5 to HP vSphere 5.5 U1 ends with the following error:
Errors/Warnings during system scan
CONFLICTING_VIBS ERROR […] Remove the conflicting vibs or use Image Builder to create a custom ISO providing newer versions of the conflicting vibs
[Broadcomm_bootbank_net-bnx2_2.2.5dv55-10OEM.550.0.0.1331828]
The current version 5.5 is a HP custom ISO as well as the version 5.5 U1 I tried to upgrade to.
This appears to me very similar to https://communities.vmware.com/thread/482105., which is marked solved although it appears to me it is more a workaround used there.
Any ideas? Do I have to wait for an updated version from HP?
