Hey Tony,

Take a look here:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/servers-unified-computing/ucs-manager/116349-technote-product-00.html

It looks like you should be installing the driver with a .vib file extension vs .zip. Try to extract the .vib out of the zip and attempt the install again. Also, use the command as listed in the example:

esxcli software vib install –v /path/async-driver.vib

HTH,

Wes

Hi Tony,

It seems that Wes is correct in the type of file you are trying to install. Here is another step by step guide on how to install the ENIC / FNIC drivers.
