ESXi comes pre-installed on the HX converged nodes. UCS firmware, HX installer, HX upgrade files, ESXi upgrade zip files and lastly ESXi ISO for server imaging are located here: https://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=286305544&softwareid=286305994&release=2.1(1b)&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest

You will need to download vCenter from VMware directly.
