> Currently the installation guide has a section for patching/upgrading XenServer hosts (Upgrading XenServer Versions). It would be good to have a documented procedure for patching/upgrading vSphere as well. The following procedure has been verified by QA.
> 1. Unmanage the cluster in CloudStack. This can be done from the CloudStack UI.
> 2. Do the following 3 steps for each of the ESXi hosts (2.a followed by 2.b, and 2.c) in the cluster:
> 2.a. Move each of the ESXi hosts in the cluster to maintanance mode and ensure all the VMs get migrated to other hosts in that cluster. If there is only 1 host in that cluster, shutdown all VMs and move the host into maintenance mode.
> 2.b. Apply the patch on the ESXi host. Reboot the host if required.
> 2.c. Move the host out of maintenance mode.
> 3. Manage the cluster in CloudStack. This can be done from the CloudStack UI.
> 4. Verify the host state is properly synchronized and updated in the Cloudstack database (or via UI... state should be "Up").
