What ISO do I use to upgrade ESXi on BE6k

[dave tuggle]

I just realized that I've probably posted this in the wrong forum so I added the same question in Data Center -> UCS. I do not see how to delete this so if someone could remove it please do.

I've been asked to upgrade the ESXi on a UCSC 220-M3SBE (BE6k) platform from 5.1 to 6.5 - I'm not sure what media or ISO I should use. I've obtained the custom Cisco image from VMware's web site for 6.5 but is that right or is there a special ISO I need to use in order to keep the splash screen to where it says: Cisco Business Edition 6000 as shown in the screenshot below? It would seem like if I used the custom image that I've downloaded from VMware it would replace the text: "Cisco Business Edition 6000" with VMware ESXi 6.5..... yadda yadda yadda

Thanks!

Correct iso. You are going to need to upgrade your esxi licenses. Also I wouldn’t be concerned about it saying it is a be6k. That is a configuration done on the esxi, it is the license that determines the esxi feature set.
