i have other hosts with 6.5 version i dont receive any error, anyone knows if the mfs and nmst tool have some compatibility issue with 6.7 U3? i downloaded the latest version , i tried to force the installation but same error, files :nmst-4.13.0.104-1OEM.650.0.0.4598673.x86_64.vib and mft-4.13.0.104-10EM-650.0.0.4598673.x86_64.vib
Hi,
To workaround this issue apply the following:
- Move the ESX machine to community-support
esxcli software acceptance set --level=CommunitySupport
- Install the bundle with no-sign-check
esxcli software vib install -d <vib_file> --no-sig-check
- Set back PartnerSupported
esxcli software acceptance set --level=PartnerSupported
Thanks,
Samer
above suggestion fails with secure-boot
[root@esx:~] esxcli software acceptance set --level=CommunitySupport
Invalid data constraint for parameter ‘level’. Expected a single value from the set [VMwareCertified, VMwareAccepted, PartnerSupported, CommunitySupported] got ‘CommunitySupport’
[root@esx:~] esxcli software acceptance set --level=CommunitySupported
[AcceptanceConfigError]
Secure Boot enabled: Cannot change acceptance level to community.
Please refer to the log file for more details.
This post is a year ago, so this is probably not very helpful, but the issue was that it’s CommunitySupport but it should be CommunitySupported, like so:
esxcli software acceptance set --level=CommunitySupported
