VIB Package can be removed using the command
Existing command output/VIB behavior changes:
==============================================
1. System reboot is required for changes to take effect post VIB installation. This is because of the esxcli plugin support. StorCLI namespace needs to be registered with esxcli and hence a system reboot is the mandatory step per VMware for changes to take effect.
2. If StorCLI utility is directly executed, Command output will be in XML format with XML encoded special characters in place.
Files access / permissions:
============================
1. By default, CLI log file or any files, which are generated by plugin, will be created under /var/log/vmware/ directory.
2. An absolute file path needs to be provided for any plugins which take file as an input.
Limitations:
=============
1. Memory and temp file reservation for storcli is restricted to 100MB in ESXi8.0. Hence if this memory / temp file reservation is exhausted, Plugin will not be able to parse the data correctly. Hence please make sure that the mentioned amount of memory is reserved.
2. Direct StorCLI utility command execution will yield a XML formatted output which aligns to XML rule set.
3. Command options / command / namespaces in ESXCLI plugin are case sensitive. Hence plugin should be executed based on the help mentioned for each of the esxcli plugin else esxcli plugin will error out.
4. ESXCLI plugin has a command output data limit. If this exceeds, Plugin will not parse and display the information. If the command output length is more, Please use the file option to store the data instead else please follow the below instructions from VMware to increase the data limit.
Steps to increase the command data limit:
=========================================
1. Run the following command on the host in question: configstorecli config current get -c esx -g services -k hostd > out.json
2. Try bumping the limits in the below in VMOMI adapter and see if it helps when running esxcli.
"vmomi": {
"soap_request": {
"max_elements": 500000,
"max_depth": 1000,
"max_unauthenticated_doc_size": 100000,
"max_doc_size": 20000000
}
},
3. Then in the resulting out.json file find the entries above and bump the limits, e.g. double max_elements, max_depth and max_doc_size.
4. Finally, reapply:
configstorecli config current set -c esx -g services -k hostd -infile out.json
5. Reboot the server.
Additional notes:
=================
1. For system namespace i.e., esxcli storcli system <>, except the esxcli storcli system file <> plugin, Options --json and --nolog are valid.
These options are not displayed in esxcli plugin help because these options are optional and there are no mandatory options for these set of commands.
2. The command options to the plugins are maintained in lower case as they are case sensitive.
3. The command options are presented in alphabetical order of the parameter name. It's per the esxcli plugin convention/rules.
4. Input value needs to be enclosed in double quotes if format of the value has a space.
5. Help command is not added as the esxcli plugin framework offers help based on the available namespaces and corresponding commands/command options can be queried accordingly.
ESXCLI Plugin format:
======================
esxcli [options] {namespace}+ {cmd} [cmd options]
Example : esxcli storcli system show ctrlcount
ESXCLI plugin sample command output:

Verify the RPM signature using the following steps:
Download the HPE GPG 2048-bit Public Key (hpePublicKey2048_key1.pub), which is available from the HPE SDR web site: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/keys.html
Import the public key while logged in as root by running the following command:
# rpm --import /path_to_the_key/file_name_of_the_key
example # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/26C2B797.pub
Verify the RPM:
Use the rpm --checksig command to validate and verify the digital signature of the signed file. The output from the command indicates the validity of the signature:
# rpm --checksig filename_of_the_rpm
example result # rpm --checksig <filename>.rpm
<filename>.rpm: digests signatures OK
If your file does not pass verification or you do not have the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company public key installed, you may see an error:
# rpm --checksig sample_file.rpm
sample_file.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: key#s)
In this case then do not install the rpm. This means the file has been modified in some way since being released from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company.

Verify the RPM signature using the following steps:
Download the HPE GPG 2048-bit Public Key (hpePublicKey2048_key1.pub), which is available from the HPE SDR web site: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/keys.html
Import the public key while logged in as root by running the following command:
# rpm --import /path_to_the_key/file_name_of_the_key
example # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/26C2B797.pub
Verify the RPM:
Use the rpm --checksig command to validate and verify the digital signature of the signed file. The output from the command indicates the validity of the signature:
# rpm --checksig filename_of_the_rpm
example result # rpm --checksig <filename>.rpm
<filename>.rpm: digests signatures OK
If your file does not pass verification or you do not have the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company public key installed, you may see an error:
# rpm --checksig sample_file.rpm
sample_file.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: key#s)
In this case then do not install the rpm. This means the file has been modified in some way since being released from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company.

4. Select the first entry in the Signature List and click the Details button.
5. The signature status will display at the top of the Details dialog.
6. If the signature message states that “This digital signature is OK.”, then the firmware package is authenticated as an HPE package
7. If the message “This digital signature is not OK.” displays, then do the following:
a. Do not deploy the firmware.
b. Download firmware a second time and verify the signature again. If the signature is not OK, then contact HPE Technical Support.
To verify the SHA256 hash value, do the following steps:
1. Use Microsoft Windows CRC/SHA tool to calculate the SHA256 hash value for <filename>.exe.
2. Compare the calculated value with the SHA256 value displayed in the Installation Instruction tab of the HPE Support Center download page.
• If the values match, then the integrity of the downloaded file has been verified.
• If the values do not match, do not deploy the file or its contents.
• Download the file a second time and compare the new hash value.
• If the hash values do not match, then do not deploy the downloaded file and contact HPE Technical Support.
Execute the file <filename>.exe and follow onscreen instructions to finish the installation.
After the driver installaton is complete, please restart the server.
Update the firmware and software in the usual manner.
]]>These pre-compiled RPM packages may not install or function as expected on a different kernel (e.g. errata kernel). If you are not using a default inbox kernel, you should download the driver source package (i.e. <driver>.src.rpm) and compile a new driver for your target system from the driver source.
To find the location of the driver source RPM, execute the following command for the kernel module driver RPM: localhost> rpm -qpi <kernel module driver name>.rpm
]]>* The previous web release kmod-ixgbevf-4.18.7-1.rhel8u8.x86_64.rpm is unpublished
- The RPM package name was changed from (hp-ixgbevf) to (ixgbevf). Now we revert this change from (ixgbevf) to (hp-ixgbevf).
- The new RPM release is deferred to next new OS major release
* kmod-hp-ixgbevf and kmod-ixgbeare different RPM package for OS. They can be together installed in the same time.
To avoid confusion, if you already download and install kmod-ixgbevf-4.18.7-1.rhel8u8.x86_64.rpm, please uninstall the previous RPM by #rpm -e kmod-ixgbevf and then install the updated RPM.

Component execution outside of HPE Synergy Support Pack:
These pre-compiled RPM packages may not install or function as expected on a different kernel (e.g. errata kernel). If you are not using a default inbox kernel, you should download the driver source package (i.e. <driver>.src.rpm) and compile a new driver for your target system from the driver source.
To find the location of the driver source RPM, execute the following command for the kernel module driver RPM: localhost> rpm -qpi <kernel module driver name>.rpm

These pre-compiled RPM packages may not install or function as expected on a different kernel (e.g. errata kernel). If you are not using a default inbox kernel, you should download the driver source package (i.e. <driver>.src.rpm) and compile a new driver for your target system from the driver source.
To find the location of the driver source RPM, execute the following command for the kernel module driver RPM: localhost> rpm -qpi <kernel module driver name>.rpm

Verify the RPM signature using the following steps:
Download the HPE GPG 2048-bit Public Key (hpePublicKey2048_key1.pub), which is available from the HPE SDR web site: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/keys.html
Import the public key while logged in as root by running the following command:
# rpm --import /path_to_the_key/file_name_of_the_key
example # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/26C2B797.pub
Verify the RPM:
Use the rpm --checksig command to validate and verify the digital signature of the signed file. The output from the command indicates the validity of the signature:
# rpm --checksig filename_of_the_rpm
example result # rpm --checksig <filename>.rpm
<filename>.rpm: digests signatures OK
If your file does not pass verification or you do not have the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company public key installed, you may see an error:
# rpm --checksig sample_file.rpm
sample_file.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: key#s)
In this case then do not install the rpm. This means the file has been modified in some way since being released from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company.

Verify the RPM signature using the following steps:
Download the HPE GPG 2048-bit Public Key (hpePublicKey2048_key1.pub), which is available from the HPE SDR web site: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/keys.html
Import the public key while logged in as root by running the following command:
# rpm --import /path_to_the_key/file_name_of_the_key
example # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/26C2B797.pub
Verify the RPM:
Use the rpm --checksig command to validate and verify the digital signature of the signed file. The output from the command indicates the validity of the signature:
# rpm --checksig filename_of_the_rpm
example result # rpm --checksig <filename>.rpm
<filename>.rpm: digests signatures OK
If your file does not pass verification or you do not have the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company public key installed, you may see an error:
# rpm --checksig sample_file.rpm
sample_file.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: key#s)
In this case then do not install the rpm. This means the file has been modified in some way since being released from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company.

If the module is not loaded, use this command to load the module: vmkload_mod nmst
Unzip the component.
# unzip CPXXXXXX.zip
From the same directory, update the firmware using legacy Smart Component by executing vmexe64 file:
# ./CPXXXXXX.vmexe64
OR
Follow below steps to update the firmware using signed VIB:
# esxcli software component apply -d /tmp/CPXXXXXX_VMw.zip
Note : add --no-sig-check to signature checking needs to be skipped.
# cd /opt/Smart_Component/CP0XXXXX/
# Update the firmware by running the command "./Execute_Component -s -f"
Follow the directions given by the Smart Component.
Logout.
Disable SSH on the ESXi host.
Reboot your system, if required, for the firmware update to take effect.

Verify the RPM signature using the following steps:
Download the HPE GPG 2048-bit Public Key (hpePublicKey2048_key1.pub), which is available from the HPE SDR web site: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/keys.html
Import the public key while logged in as root by running the following command:
# rpm --import /path_to_the_key/file_name_of_the_key
example # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/26C2B797.pub
Verify the RPM:
Use the rpm --checksig command to validate and verify the digital signature of the signed file. The output from the command indicates the validity of the signature:
# rpm --checksig filename_of_the_rpm
example result # rpm --checksig <filename>.rpm
<filename>.rpm: digests signatures OK
If your file does not pass verification or you do not have the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company public key installed, you may see an error:
# rpm --checksig sample_file.rpm
sample_file.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: key#s)
In this case then do not install the rpm. This means the file has been modified in some way since being released from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company.
From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file.
Click the "Install" button to proceed with the installation. The utility will automatically be installed.
